    Allen make sure to keep a window cracked i the front it helps with the air flow and just in case it also lets fresh air in the truck.

    5 percent in first and last quarter of the year, for idle time. Not an issue with the webasco :) Over speed should be no higher than 5%. Out of route no greater than 10%.

    I don't get bonuses in the summer :(

    You can bake a chicken in the truck LOL. My previous rotation (I slip seat) the #### heater thermostat was bad. You either turned it on wide open, or left it off.

    However, depending on what direction the wind is blowing. You can remain comfortable with BOTH windows rolled down (curtains drawn) at night, and the heat on. You can regulate the temp with the side vents and bunk fan LOL

    Sleeping with the windows down is a good way to wake up dead

    Our truck has an Espar heater, works great, I love it. Just have to remember to shut it off and wait about 10 minutes (more if you can) before starting the truck. Close the curtains and it gets all toasty warm inside the truck, we don't even have blankets just sheets on the beds.

    Uhhhhhh ??? No blankets ???

    When the snow starts flying, I never leave home without my sleeping bag. That bag by itself is good to 0 degrees. Although I don't use it, unless necessary.

    While modern technology is wonderful. It can let you down. A very dangerous situation in winter.

    Schneider seems to be a pretty good place to work at, with the only CSA score that pops up negatively being in vehicle maint at 64%. What are these shops doing over there? :biggrin_2556: www.csa.fmcsa.dot.gov carrier search.
