    Default Espar/Webasco:

    Does your company have these on-board heating systems installed on your tractors?

    If so, please list your company.

    CFI has them in all of their trucks above a certain unit number. Probably most of them are equipped with them now.

    Uh, you're not going to use that as a deciding factor on who to drive for are you??

    Personally.....I think whether or not the company equips their tractors with Espar heaters is not a prime decision factor. There are many other factors that would take precedence ahead of that.

    For instance....I know of a company here in FL that has auxiliary generators on ALL of their trucks, and I still wouldn't give them the time of day. In fact thats probably the sole "plus" to them.

    But, you have to set your own parameters... 8)

    To me the three biggies are:

    Can I make a good living and still get home on a regular basis, and the general working conditions as well as the general culture of the company; is it driver friendly or are you a piece of meat in the seat?

    May Trucking has bunk heaters on most of their tractors. I have one in my 379 they assigned me. Don't know the brand though. I love it.

    Foolish?

    So sleeping in noisy vibrating tractor is not foolish?

    All the miles in the world are no good if you're too tired to drive them.

    Ever hear of earplugs? Think the truck next to you is not going to be loud?

    This from a guy who's never even driven yet let alone actually used a bunk heater. Believe me when I tell you its alot more comfortable than an idling vibrating truck with plugs in your ears driver, oops, I mean soon to be driver.

    Here's a tip for ya. There's other places to park besides truck stops and rest areas. Ya have to know where to look. After driving all day I prefer peace and quiet. Actually, I prefer my own bed, which is why I no longer run the road. :wink:
