Just paid $300 idleing fine in Nj.With all the states going to the bio fuels,starting these trucks in the winter is going to get very costly

or many maybe sleeping in the cold.its just nuts.

Last night it went down to 26 degrees outside. But because I insulated my van over the summer, got a portable buddy heater, a 20 lb propane tank and a couple carbon dioxide detectors, I had a warm and comfortable nights sleep in my van. Best $300 I ever spent.

I use a big buddy heater also...but it is the lack of oxygen that is the one to watch for...keep your front Windows cracked 2" or so and you will have 0 problems...c02 detectors are a good idea...

Thanks asjssl , you got that right, windows down about 2 inches and back door even cracked just a bit. Wish I would of had one of these heaters last year.

I have the usuals...the buddy heater, a good sleeping bag, etc but I find its important to keep your head warm. When its really cold I wear one of those Russian style caps with the big ear flaps that buckles under your chin. I forgot to take it off one morning when I ran into a rest area and got some funny looks but it does make a difference in staying warm.
