Most Schneider company trucks don't have any kind of APU. Some are lucky enough to have battery powered HVAC units that last anywhere from 12 minutes to 10 hours like they are supposed to.

Lots of Schneider contractors (myself included) have APUs on our trucks, I could NEVER go back to driving a truck without one.
