Mike, APU is not counted for the idling. Well I would think it wouldn't be. Maybe I'll call them tomorrow and ask. I don't see how it could track the APU, it works off the ECM.
Big D, thanks for your comments and you are right and I didn't agree to him doing that.
What happened, I'm not sure if I mentioned this already, the broker CHR was pushing him. I kept calling them up and then finally I kind of lost it with them. The guy told me "well I asked the driver if he could make it and he said yes."
I told him it was my truck and as for asking the driver, you don't put a chocolate cake in front of a 10 year old. The broker admitted that he won't be standing there with me in court if something happens.
This guy won't listen to me and that is another reason he is getting out of the truck. Believe me I'm not going to lose my safety rating and/or my house over this guy.
As to putting a man in a one truck operation, that's why I'm going to buy another one
. No I'm kidding. I actually liked being out there, and who knows maybe I'll end up out there again. I just want to explore other avenues as well.
Thanks again for the comments.
PS. I just called People Net and asked how it could have idled 25 hours and only used 8 gallons but he didn't know.
