For what it's worth I came into trucking after a 20 yr career in business and I wouldn't even think about leasing until you have a year on the road making sure you like the lifestyle and getting an idea of what freight you might want to haul.
Take any opportunity to talk with experienced o/o drivers and get an understanding of what they are seeing and what's working for them. This will help you inform your decision. Good luck in your new career, I hope it works for you.Michelle Trull Thanks this. -
Seems to me it's logically sound having one. Use it don't abuse it and inside of 2 yrs it'll pay it's self off at a cost of 10K. By not abusing it , using it while you go take a shower , have breakfast and watch the morning news , it'll last a whole lot longer, and after that payoff period it's a nice pay increase.
Most APU avg about a gallon per 8 hrs use. Put that up against Idling a gallon an hr. And it's no brainer for me , I care not how nice that truck is and what extras it has , no APU no go. Not with me.
I've seen owner ops sleeping in the driver lounges to avoid idling through a night the low temp goes down only 83 degrees with high humidity. Forget that. -

As a company driver, most top end companies have a focus on fuel economy so APU's are commonplace, I agree the TV and satellite radio are luxuries, but unless you are buying the truck yourself then I would expect an APU to be on my truck. -
Fridges, satellite TV, APU's, huge inverters, automatic transmissions, as much mini motorhome as truck.

anybody knows more about them I feel like taking a break from old trucks and trying the lease to purchase with the pick your freight with them?
