Re: Keeping Cool at 112 F

Phil,
It's great to hear about the floor insulation. I think the problem for many of us is using a sleeper (factory or after market) that uses the old style of insulating things, cheap foam, fiberglass matting, wood and so on. Some people don't understand the how much insulation matters in a truck, both cab and sleeper and even just insulating the roof and sides of the roof panel helps a lot.

About the generator, you did it right. I think the simplicity of your setup reflects the flexibility needed in a truck. Unlike the APU system, some of them are just copies of each other, the biggest issue I have seen is serviceability more than anything else.

I wonder what generator are they using that blows out bearing?

Politics is a game of engagement

In order for you to change something you don’t like, to change something for the betterment of your country or to change just for the need of change, you must be involved, engaged and vocal.


So don’t blame me if Congress passes laws that affect you, your family or your rights

Be Engaged!
