Harvest laments:

Just because things didn't work out for you at Prime, doesn't mean you can't go back. I think that Realdiehl, was rejected and/or sent home from Prime but now he's a happy camper there.

Live for the moment, man. You've got a nice new truck. May not be perfect, but you're way ahead of where you were months ago, right?

And speaking of spoiled Prime drivers. You too can have a luxury bedroom like this:

Wonder how her beau looks all snuggled in that comforter.

Princess Rainy HAS been quiet lately. How ARE things going w/her beau, anyway?!?!? It's been what...10 days? Did she drop him off at Sprimo yet?!?!?!? rofl-3.gifconfused.gif

APU:

Auxiliary Power Unit

On tractor trailers, and APU is a small diesel engine that powers a heat and air conditioning unit while charging the truck's main batteries at the same time. This allows the driver to remain comfortable in the cab and have access to electric power without running the main truck engine.

Having an APU helps save money in fuel costs and saves wear and tear on the main engine, though they tend to be expensive to install and maintain. Therefore only a very small percentage of the trucks on the road today come equipped with an APU.
