Would you guys prefer your next job/truck to have an APU or e-APU in it?

Oh wow. 20k hours! So I'm guessing the noise and vibration never was an issue for you??? Others I've talked to told me that it was an issue for them. Maybe they're exaggerating. But, I'll look into it. How often do you have to service it?

I have an older thermoking tripac apu. I love it. I have almost 20k hours on it. I keep it serviced and it is awesome.

I’ve known folks who have used cheaper brands and had nothing but trouble from them.

Carrier makes one also, but they have less service centers for them. Any thermoking dealer works on apu’s, not so for carrier.

Hey guys,

I haven't seen this discussed recently in the forum. I'm a rookie here and wanted to know from the guys here that have APUs or eAPUs what they like and don't like about them. Maybe you've tried both and don't like either of them. Is there a better option? I know APUs have been around forever and eAPUs are newer but they have their own issues. I'm all for saving gas and $$$ but not if it means freezing or sweating my ass off at night to save a few bucks. So, what do you guys recommend?

Oh and if you prefer the APU or eAPU. Tell me why.

Or if there's something newer out there that you have tried that is better than both, let me know.

Thanks guys! Really appreciate it!
