A ProMax APU pays for itself!
The "no idling" laws are growing and enforcement can be
expensive. But even without
these laws, investing in a quality ProMax APU for your rig is just good business
that will save you thousands of dollars every year.
If you drive your truck 24 days per month, the savings in fuel alone will make the monthly payment for your unit, and put a couple of hundred dollars of savings into your pocket each month.
In a year, after your APU is paid off, you'll be saving $ 8,600 each year. And we haven't even touched on the maintenance savings from not idling your truck for 240 hours each month.
