    Omg ! 891.45 saved in truck fuel saved over an 18 day period running a 700 doller generater and a 137 doller ac unit .

    You could replace the generator every 2 yrs with a new one and still be ahead of the game compared to an APU.

    Eventually a few more guys will get the idea and might try this and we will have new threads with guys who are as excited to find a cheap solution to saving fuel and still able to keep cool or warm while not idling.

    Its an easy $10k+ a year in fuel savings. Not sure about you,.. but there is a lot I could do with $10k vs letting it burn out of my exhaust pipes.

    Why not go with a small diesel generator? Then you can just install the fuel pickup tube into the truck's tank.

    Price and noise.

    Those Perkins motors will keep me up all night from the vibration and noise.

    That and they are not as reliable as the Honda. Nor would I have the same service market available to me as I do with the Honda. Thousands of Honda certified Cycle and RV centers across the country I can go to if I ever have a problem. 2 yrs and not a single problem yet. (Knock on wood)
