As for the incentives such as $75 extra bucks for hazmat. No thank you i won't touch haz for that. They say were getting the extra regardless of whether or not they charge the customer more. Yea right i wasn't born yesterday no carrier under the sun will haul hazmat for the same price as any...

I don't know what the deal is here but being a good ole' Georgia boy my wife rules the roost in my household. Sent from my SCH-I510 using EO Forums mobile app

That's great news. I've heard great things about tripak the carrier I have on my truck was already on it when I bought the truck. I didn't even know what an apu was but now I'm sure glad I have it. Sent from my SCH-i705 using EO Forums mobile app

I guess i would have to figure out a solution. I wouldn't cut back the sleeper though maybe a smaller box. Sent from my SCH-I510 using EO Forums mobile app

I hope I can get 16000 hours out of mine. Sent from my SCH-i705 using EO Forums mobile app

Coronado with lift axle, 22' reefer box, lift gate, 96" bolt sleeper, storage boxes, stick shift transmission, and of course an apu. That's what I would do as a team but as long as I'm solo I won't build a truck. Sent from my SCH-i705 using EO Forums mobile app

Does anyone know what the life (hour) expectancy is on a apu? I have a carrier comfort pro I'm assuming from reading on here it's the 6000 series because it uses R134A. Mine has 6265 hours. Just curious if anyone has an idea. Sent from my SCH-i705 using EO Forums mobile app

It's an old saying that started with horse racing I believe. A horse owner would have a veterenarian "vet" a horse they were intersted in buying. To make sure it was worth the price. Sent from my SCH-i705 using EO Forums mobile app

Daffy, I really hope things work out for you with a fleet. That is also my plan when I finish paying for my truck, I've heard plenty of horror stories but I believe if you really vet your drivers you can make it work. Sent from my SCH-i705 using EO Forums mobile app

I'm under 30. With a truck payment and rising cost, not including the bills at home I'm really going to have to weigh my options. I hope things work out. Sent from my SCH-i705 using EO Forums mobile app
