    Main thing (both from personal exp and talking with others) is to change the oil every 1000 hours or so, a lot more often than is recommended.

    The filter media that is in the bunk AC unit you can buy regular stuff from Lowe's or other home stores. The sheets they sell you can cut 3 or 4 sections out of and it will still be cheaper than what TK wants for one.

    Was your APU already installed on your truck?

    Reason I'm asking is that Xantrex model is standard with Tripac's and has been for a while.
