I have applied for a Smartway loan for an APU purchase. Just wondering if anyone else has done so and gotten it???
I'll keep updated on how it goes....... maybe a new truck will be in my future too![]()

Check with OOIDA, they have grant money to pay 40% of your cost. Depends on what state you live in.
I'll check into that as well.... thanks.
I really want to get in on that ProMax APU deal before it's over on October 1st, and since they are local the install is no biggie![]()
APUs are WAY overpriced, and therefore economically NOT practical.
Here's what I do:
In summer: I run the A/C for 1/2-3/4 hour before I go to bed. If I wake up hot/sweaty at some point, I turn my 12V fan on & go back to sleep. If I wake up hot again (usually don't), I run the A/C for maybe 1/2 hour tops, & go back to sleep for the rest of the night.
In winter: I have a generator (around 2500W) connected to a small heater that I run on LOW setting, when the forecast low is to be 20-40 degrees F. If the low is to be less than 20 degrees F, I run the truck engine for heat. Which I virtually NEVER have to do running FL and coastal GA.
Just call me "King"![]()
