Don't forget to hydrate the driver. Coming from the Southeast when I worked out West for a year I had to remember to keep drinking water all day. If I just stayed busy, I'd get dehydrated. For me, I learned I need to be drinking two 1-liter bottles of water during the day or I would have problems. Another thing I would do is sleep with the covers over my head. That traps the humidity where I needed it most.
Dry air from idling?

Surprised this old ### thread is still bumping lol...
Anyway, I never really found an answer to it. It stopped being an "only in the truck" issue and now happens occasionally regardless of where I sleep. It just started one day and, for years now, never stopped. One of those quirks of aging I guess, I suspect something in the structure of my nose is messed up though. I quickly realized doctors were a waste of time, short of "trying surgery to see if it helps" I didn't really get any actual answers, no polyps or anything were present, nasal canal wasn't unusually 'small'/tight, etc.. It was said to be unusually dry with no discernible reason, and hydration and different nasal sprays were ineffective. I just kinda live with it now until I have enough time/money on my hands to see if correcting my childhood deviated septum would help. -
