    Have a nice preload heading over to Oregon from Illinois.

    Waiting for a driver to tcall his load at our Juliot drop yard where I'm to take it all the way for a drop at a customer in Portland. 2000 mile run.

    Only thing is we have freight also coming out of this customer and all of it goes straight down to either San Francisco or Los Angeles for live unloads at Cosco DCs.

    Good chance I'll be doing a swap at final, taking a load to Cali unless they have me tcall this load again in route.
     
    Lonesome and Rugerfan Thank this.

    Would be AWESOME if they are...again. I had one back around 2005ish? Was a TriPac. Had a 2kw inverter. The AC kept that truck at 65° on the hottest days in August. Same with the bunk heater. Never had an issue. They work great...IF they're maintained properly.

    After my tractor got traded, they put me in one with the Carrier APU's. That was a price of crap. Always broken. Froze to death in the winter. Always complained and was told they were getting rid of them so they weren't going to maintain them anymore. Cost cutting cut they were too expensive.

    I thought Mr. Winny O said they would never install any again. Maybe $6-7.00 fuel changed his mind

    Nearly had a heart attack when I went to start my truck after fueling. I turned the key and the words I remember all to well appeared on the dash - Starter Blocked.

    Last time this happened I was in a hotel for 4 days and then sent to get a new truck. Thankfully it didn't come to that since it started after I turned the key off and back on but doesn't look good for the transmission.
