I am interested in seeing how this is going to work! Kinda of scary when you picture some of these Pilots, and then imagine IdleAire on top of the already logistical nightmares of their parking lots.

Wrong. Instead of just being able to park six trucks, you'll only be able to park two.

That is exactly what it is!
IdleAire, Inc. ... the In-Cab Services Leader
It seems to be a very neat invention, but as everyone has already pointed out here it is not very practical when for a parking lot.

I see about as many not using IdleAire as are connected at some of these truck stops. Some are actually blocking trucks from parking in those spots unless you pay IdleAire. IdleAire isn't very practical. It takes up too much space and if you are a non smoker it can really smell bad from all the smoke. I never use IdleAire. I can idle my truck for what it costs to connect to it.

Good point. But then, I can save even more by shutting off the engine.

If I was near a big city while driving, I'd just hang out at the mall during the uber-hot weather.
