See them on Gordon and Werner trucks, wonder if May will ever get them. Must be nice to be able to use all your appliances (microwave, PS3, fridge, ect) and not get whacked for idle time.

no May does not and will not put APU's on their trucks. They say "it isnt cost effeiciant because we trade the trucks out too often". And may Charges You for idleing...

I've been hit with idle charges, I got a PS3 and it pulls over 200 watts, (yes, an old dude like me has a PS3) so now I don't use it until I've got enough miles to have idle time built up, I use my microwave as little as possible too, got one of those lunch box stoves, it works pretty good. Been pricing generators, probably gonna get one that can fit under my bunk when I'm not useing it. But, I was hopeing some one had heard May was gonna get APU'S too.

if you can afford it, pickup a Honda Generator, they're small, light, quite too, just get a cable and a padlock so it doesnt walk off while your sleeping.
American TruckerJimmy Hoffa Thanks this. -
And for us reefer drivers, when that thing is running, the magic cable solves all those problems. Will be sitting on this load for almost 2 days, reefer on constant. Otherwise, I'd take a hard look at that little Honda...
