    I don't drive for them (and never have).. I work in their shop here in Denver.
    Inverters.. the whole line haul fleet has APUs. If you get one with the Carrier Comfort Pro, it has a 120v supply powered off the generator, which only functions when the APU is running. If you have the Thermo King Tripac Evolution (which the fleet seems to be transitioning to), then there's an actual inverter which can operate at any time. Wiring your own in, as with any other company, is a no-go, although you can use the lower wattage ones which plug into a 12v outlet... really isn't a need to. Pretty sure all the current team trucks have the TriPac, and thus, have an inverter which they can use at any given time, so the need for teams to have an inverter when they had the ComfortPro and were going down the road isn't a thing anymore. The inverters and generators are both substantially powerful enough that you'll be able to power a microwave, DVD player for your pornos, etc.
    Don't know how many drivers hit that bonus. Not sure I'd be allowed to post it on here even if I did, as I am subject to a nondisclosure agreement.
