    So I called in morning that day and they were able to bump up my delivery appointment, so... never did get a chance to get Tri-pac looked at. Have worse problem now! The air condition on the truck is failing.. Geezz! 95 degrees and sweating my ### off! Can't idle and no Tri-pac for cool air ..AGAIN!!!!! this is second time...

    Anyway.. after that load delivered in southern CAL, Picked up another load by my house and went on down to San Diego, dropped & live loaded and went back up to Salt Lake . Dropped and hooked another load went to Oxnard CA. Dropped and Hooked and came up here to Woodland CA again and parked at same Wally~mart I was at a week ago! Pretty good week all light loads and most of them high payers! Found a good paying 3 stop load for tomorrow and heading back down by the house. Taking a couple days off, putting truck in the shop and have our BBQ Memorial day on Weds!

    Hope you all had a great weekend!

    Taking my weekend in couple days..Peace out!

    you can't idle in a lease truck ? I know SNI has a no idle policy but does it go for Lease Drivers also ?

    He has a problem with his APU.. He can do whatever he wants, he has to pay for fuel.

    So do I but dang if I'll burn up or freeze either or .. I will be uncomfortable to save fuel but not be extreme hot or cold I feel for you with the APU problem . My AC Compressor just went out of mine and 686.00 later fixed . Those APU's spoil us :)

    No, no..I can idle.. but my air doesn't work when the the truck is idling and neither does my APU! SUCKS! I'm O/O and always expected that if my APU goes out I could least idle and still have air, even if it does burn fuel didn't matter to me in a pinch! But in this case both air-condition units are broke.. The tractor and the APU are out!

    Does your truck have duel units for bunk and cab ? If it's not your compressor your bunk may still work or vice versa
