    A serious question to ask yourself for whichever company you choose is will they meet your wants, needs and goals without too much #### to eat.

    Good luck.

    I just found it odd the first thing a recruiter would state is driver comforts which made me think this must be a Schneider complaint they commonly hear

    When and if I decide to leave the big orange it is going to come down to a list of factors not just one
     
    TruckerBri and TennMan Thank this.

    Never said it wouldn't. My whole point was some companies tell you about all those great things in their trucks for a reason. Drivers see the shine and jump ship, especially inexperienced drivers, only to find out they need those things because they are sitting more than they are driving.

    To the O/O in this thread. When coming over to the choice board program do we have the right to bring over our own truck with an apu and inverter already installed? or is it against company 300w limit policy?

    O/O's have different policies than company drivers. They can have whatever size inverter they want, it's their truck.

    Actually, from the model # , it's a 1200 watt. Better than nothing though.

    It"s 1500 watts. Go to purkeys website and look it up. Or stop by any operating center and ask an OSR for the training handout on these inverters.
