    Ohio....isn't that Indian for #######? It was when I lived in that god-forsaken hole. You couldn't swing a dead cat without hitting one...and that included my family reunion.

    Last summer was brutal even with all curtains closed including the bunk the apu still could not keep it cool. I was running alot of night runs so that truck was baking during the day. One thing you can do is pull in lowes or home depot, Menard ect... and get 10 foot of dryer hose, a one foot dryer extension and a dryer t fitting. Take the apu air outlet diffuser off, put the extension in hole, connect hose to extension and t fitting and then you can have direct air inches away from you. I know it's a drag to have to rig stuff up but it works. Material is cheap, takes five minutes to rig up. Sitting in front, drag it with you, in the rack put it on desk pointed at you.

    I've seen 2 feet of new snow in August on a Wy Interstate. Rediculous.

    I heard that about Crete, they will give you a string of short hauls or re-power stuff, even as a company driver.
