    Before I went out of business I was looking at a Espar heater for the bunk and engine block,...I figured that for a third of the price of most apu's I would just use the heat in the winter,..and idle when needed for ac in the summer....My thinking was I spent much more time idling for heat than for ac...

    Just sold the rigmaster that was on the truck. Going back to running team won't need it anymore. Liked the rigmaster...could maintain it myself worked as good as any out there. :biggrin_25525:

    I have been hearing the same thing on rigmaster hard or cant service yourself. im looking at getting a power tech i believe the name is , getting prices from $7000-$15000 for diffrent apu models. hard to believe theirs that much of a price diff. they all seem to have about the same features. thanks
