    Yes, indeed. Bolt, who identifies as a He-goat, says this is a very Goatly truck, as evidenced by how everything is designed for a much bigger person. You have to be 6 feet tall or jump up to the upper bunk to see your face in the vanity mirror. ")

    Nope no cabinet but the table swings out and extends to 3 feet. It is very convenient.

    @UturnGirl ... congratulations on your new "adventure" in a new outfit. Hope all goes well and that is a great match for you all.... including Bolt Goat... :)
    Don't want to deviate from the topic but would like to thank @BeHereNow97 about the opt-idle comment...
    I have lived in a truck with APU and now considering going to a company that uses opt-idle... Everything the company offers seems great, including the pay but they only have opt-idle... :angry2:
    So far this was the second comment I read about this opt-idle and I don't think I would like that... makes me very uncomfortable when truck is shaking while I am parked...
    All the best to you all and stay safe!!
     
    BeHereNow97, dwells40 and LoSt_AgAiN Thank this.

    I agree. So far I've used the espar bunk heater in this truck and I've used them before and they're great. However, come summer, i will be using the idle free which, when batteries get low, will fire up the truck. I'm waiting to see if I will jump out of my skin when it does that.

    My Cardinal Cascadia, Ryder Lease, has a ThermoKing APU on it, and not one but two inverters mounted inside. None of the three actually work. Truck idles so I am not worried about freezing to death but I would like to be able to use my microwave. Gonna take it in next week and have it looked at. 270K miles on the truck and it runs better and stronger than any of the new trucks I have had in the past five years. Hands down the best. Whomeve had it before me has taken very good care of it. I have heard it is going at 300K so I wont have it long.
     
    bzinger, UturnGirl and dwells40 Thank this.

    Is Sav an "out and back" outfit, as in out from MN to wherever and right back to MN? Or are they more OTR, as in Out from MN to wherever, from wherever to wherever, etc etc, then back to MN?

    Haven't been with them long enough to say for sure, but they do tend to circle back to Minnesota as a matter of course.
