Thank you sir! I've noticed this with many reefer drivers, especially up here in canada (generally more room in truck stops to do this)

I did this as well, but only in spring and fall type weather. Over 50 for a low a lot of people would be sleeping with the truck off. If it was hot or cold, theirs was likely running as well. Unless I could plainly see an APU exhaust. I always wanted to be nice to others.
