Back on the road. Lease purchase with JB Hunt

It wasn't us hun. We're just getting out now headed to NC. Got our little frig in truck full so we can cook now in truck.

 

You just didn't do it right

 

The way of the nose in park must you learn.

 

I did that last time I was parked down in Chandler, and a reefer noses in next to me....

 

You just gotta love reefers I have an apu so it does not bother me as much but when I worked as a company driver delivering windows we did not have apu's and I was at the J in Blacksburg SC when a reefer driver backed in 2 spots below me and unhooked from his 1776 year model reefer and then nosed his tractor in the spot between us. I wanted to unhook and block him in but I was a nice person about it but it was hard to play purty.

 

My solution is this........
Concentrate on the noise. After about 5 minutes it becomes White Noise.
Then go to sleep
It works

 

A reefer running puts me to sleep. I sleep with a fan on at home.

 

Casper must be pretty well insulated, cause I don't hear a lot of the truck stop noise.

Now if someone has a perpetual parked regen / fan clutch thing going, or the Carrier refer unit, I think it's cause the noise is higher up, then it sucks.

I move if there's a chance. But nosing in is the best way to avoid about 95% of all that good nonsense.

 

The worst for me and our refer trailer is defrost. The low rumble of that gets me. I remember dry van and parking next to refer. Yes, it was loud on some others were not as bad.
We lost our bedroom fan that I needed to circulate air and for covering up in laws noise. That was unnerving to hear that silence. Made hubby buy another so I could sleep. I am a light sleeper if I can hear little noises. I have no issues sleeping in truck as we idle when sleeping so refer is just extra white noise and vibration.
