I got one on my truck and love it💪👍
How much is it
Handy tip - if your alternator ever fails you can run them to finish your run and get to a workshop....well on all the ones we run in Australia anyway, also if you have flat batteries there is normally still enough to start the little motor and it'll charge you till you can start, there awesome things to have no matter what your doing 👌
One thing I would recommend is adding a real muffler and an exhaust pipe to the end of the frame. The only thing worse then a truck or reefer running while you’re trying to sleep is an APU farting beside your head. I enjoy my battery operated system. Makes almost no noise. Good for and the neighbour.
Considering he came from an 11.1 Detroit anything will be quieter for him lol
@@cwg1998 lmAo exactly and running ALL the time!
🤣🤣🤣 you captured the truck stop experience in a nutshell.
Thanks for the video Bruce, definitely a top shelf professional installation!
I have to say ive had my green for about three months and i absolutely love it. It kept my old 60 series about 100 degrees when it get sub zero temps. Keep the batteries charged and engine warm in the winter.
Those Kubotas are some of the most reliable engines made. I've used Kubota tractors for several years now (same engine basically) and have had excellent service from them. Great choice!! 👍👍👍
I disagree... Not a fan of kubota at all. Engines lose serious power after about 1000 hours at least on heavy equipment. Yanmar and Kohler diesels will run circles around a kubota... Kubota is like fake stacks... Look great but do nothing!
not as reliable as my cummins micro quiet
@@jonnyhung2576 always have heard great feedback on the Yanmar diesel regardless of the application. Not to mention the sheer volume of the engines worldwide are suggesting they have there shit together.
Great video Bruce that APU looks great and should make life much easier stay safe.
We had ThermoKing APUs at Walmart. There was an on-off switch on the dash. The APU would fire up when you shut the ignition key off. That was handy when doing drop and hooks at a store or DC on a hot day. Of course, with the TK switch off, it remained off for when you went home or didn't need air conditioning or heat. So I'm sold on APUs and your presentation of Green APU is a great introduction to their product.
Bad Ass unit makes Blue Collar 2.0 look even cooler! diggin the new Pete keep up the content. drive safe brother!
I'm happy for y'all!! Truck looks good!!
Looks like a great addition to the truck, I would imagine that it will save a lot in fuel consumption.
I really like this type of video . Bruce does a great job making this type of video .
That is awesome Bruce thanks for sharing buddy
That's great! I've never had one but I'm sure you'll love it!
Beautiful truck!!!! Congratulations brother!!!!!!!!
Hey Bruce, I'm a viewer from the netherlands and it's good to see that you are back at the channel 💪🏼💪🏼👊🏼👊🏼
The a.p.u. looks really cool on your truck and will help you a lot on the road
Hell ya... another video brotha... super excited to see you haul some big loads with that girl... the truck is so beautiful.... you should re route the air and electric hoses for the trailer near the frame... low profile and wire your trailer accordingly if needed...
Fantastic to see your videos , I just love your new truck , Washing you and your lovely family all the best in the futur with all that you do
great video, keep up the great content. apu is a great investment i would re do the exhaust so it exits to the rear of frame
Past you today on I55 in Chicago. Sharp looking truck
Saw you Bob tailing through Indy. Truck looks great!
Looks good Bruce.
Nice the green APU is cool stuff saves on fuel saves wear and tear on your truck 👍🏼
Those things are wonderful to have I can tell you when they first come out with Thermo King I got one still running today that’s been eight years ago I love a Kabota diesel is bulletproof
Good video again my friend the Peterbilt is looking good
Thanks Bruce for the awesome video rgars looks great man thanks
That's a damn good looking truck! Beautiful blue!💯🙌✌
Love this channel
Love the new Pete
ART logistics trailers sitting there. Good people. Used to see them all the time years ago coming out of Chicago area.
keep the clips coming
Yes sir nice stuff 👍
I watch another truckers YT, he has one from this company and he loves it!
Lemont il,sweet its about half hour west were I leave. Hell yea! 😎👍🤙
Just left there with mine 2 weeks ago. Best apu on the market for several reasons.
Great service there.
What was the out the door price?
Amazing video very informative
Well done video
Educational video
Hey Bruce get the guys at semi casual to put a 150 on the driver side and move the def tank behind the fuel tank and painted blue to match the auxiliary power unit plus you will get some extra few capacity.
How’s you know all of my plans
Thats pretty sweet. I wish they would make the control panel flush mount. that would bug me to see the wires coming out of the bottom of the control unit. It seems like it would be easy to do.
WE REALLY APPRICIATE YOU ........
THE NEW CONTENT IS EPIC
¬¬¬¬LOVE THE FAMILY¬¬¬¬
Wow makes want to go buy a W900 and try out this new Green APU.
BW - are you going to paint the AGAPU the same color as your frame?
This has been a great series on your new truck build!
Cheers,
Doc
This lil thing is pretty sweet. They should make one for overlanding vehicles
@@memesandmusic super large tho and not very thick metal
It came awesome 👌
Sucks was supposed to be blue collars Apu but glade to see the new truck coming along
Wow!! I want one of those for my old girl.
That APU is killer.
Seen your truck looking beautiful at the loves fuel island
I just got mine last week
The APU is a great investment for your rig and your wallet as well as the environment.🇺🇸🇺🇸
It would be so cool if they made one for camper van, I would get in a heartbeat
Looking at the back sleeper window it needs the chrome trim around it and a drop visor on it would look really good
hey bruce you need to have the truck deleted and hook the stacks up
Right nobody likes fake stacks
They are checking for deleted trucks now, 20k fine per truck if you get cought.one of my trucks has the stacks functional with the def system
Awesome truck and Apu nice
Nice!
Cool 😎 thanks
On a semi tractor apu is the way to go. If i had say a sprinter van that i was converting to a motorhome I'd go solar with LFP batteries and solar panels on the roof with an auxiliary alternator.
You were in my part of this country. About 30 miles from my home.
Nice. You are in my neck of the woods. Didnt know Green APU was located In Lemont.
Those small Kubota engines are as near bulletproof as they come. Keep it serviced and it lives forever...
I prefer Gogreen APUs same engine but with a 5k power generator and an independent coolant with an electric cord for block heater and everything is with the unit the only thing going on the back if the cab is the coolant tank
been watching justtruckens green apu this may replace my camper gen
Surprised how loud it is. But a great investment for sure. I’m not a trucker but I’d have thought it would be quieter. Seems it would be annoying while trying to sleep. But neat how it works anyway. Maybe they make a quieter muffler for it.
@@memesandmusic I'd bet the apu is louder than his engine. I got a TK APU and u cant tell its on without your hand on the thing. The Green apu is much louder. I will say the inside Auto controller is nice. but considering how big technology is i wouldve figured they had a nicer design.
I’ve had 2 trucks with Carrier APU and drove for a company with thermo king APU. Both have goods and bad points. A comment was made that if your alternator goes bad you can run with the APU running and continue home. Green APU will not do that it’s alternator isn’t big enough. With my APU running and below zero I have my block heater plugged into the 110v supply and my block temp is at 115 degree temp. And a lack of service centers if you think a flying J has dirty bathrooms you want them to work on your stuff no way.
i definitely would put a quieter muffler or double up on the one you have , its not much different than an RV genset , plus the vibration might get to you .
nice unit, great video thanks for sharing. question, what is the fuel consumption to keep everything going as if you were idling. compared to big engine idling? I think I have heard in the past from other truckers big engine idling 8 hours is 1 gallon of fuel.
A lot more than 1 gallon
Super cool video 🖐️👏👍🥰
biggest upgrade they need to try to make for future is a powerwall setup or bigger battery banks that can reduce the need for the Kubota if you are in a place that says NO Idling Whatsoever, or in California..lol.. Powerwall could be hidden between frame rail with Diamond Plate over it possibly..
enjoy the apu
Thought was going on original blue collar.
Green APU FTW!
Apu and s bar heater 👍
Very good Video !! Can you tell us what it adds in weight to the truck ??
Bruce, get a deck plate for that Pete!!
Already ordered
I like how they don't drill holes into the frame or use the ones that are already in the frame
um no apu is drilled on the apu. they all use a special clamp to hook on the frame lol
Awe man your in my neck of the woods.. I’d would have come an bought ya lunch
I would have put the apu on the other side just in case you need to replace the fan on the side it would be easy
Will we see aviation content in the future?
Blue Ox
Thumbs up before I even started this video! This is a very wise investment
Lol not like the showers at flying J .....oh boy I got some stories, good luck with that powerdrive inverter I've been through 3 of them last one fried my laptop, I would recommend a some kind of pure sine wave inverter when you can
They could make the controller flush with the dash so it'd be cleaner
Exactly what I was thinking!
Those are usually the best products, when someone uses a product in the field and upgrades it
Hey I passed u today 3/17 on I 65 u was goin south 2.0 looks good
I would like mine mounted on the deck plate
The Green APU will also charge your battery if the voltage gets to low.
Nice 👍
I'm in the process of dropping as much on a bloody house as that truck costs.
I'd rather have the truck. If I had that, I could earn money for the house too 🤣.
Helluva machine Bruce. If I ever make it to Florida, I will keep an eye out pal. Great work :)
Thanks a ton brother
Simple design that someone did damn smart man we all thinking to get rich we just need simple
I AGREE!! THOSE 3CYLINDER KUBOTAS ARE LITERALLY MONSTER ENGINES!!
HOW MUCH ARE THOSE COST?? DOES THE PRICE INCLUDES INSTALLATION??
IM SAVING MY MONEY!😁
Love these videos. Missed u Bruce. Build another mud truck now. I know you have a family now. Mud truck would pay off with the you tube revenue
It’s coming!
Is the stacks hooked up bc I still see the stock exhaust coming out of the back and the truck sounds quite?
Damn right next door to green apu is TTL or total transportation and logistics that's my company I wish I could have known you stopped by that would have been awesome
hey I live in Lemont never heard of this before cool
keep trucking brother 🙏
Hey from Canada ont
Yep life be messy huh?
Oh I found popsicle sticks work well on removing glass. It also why you carry a key.
Life full off learning.
Fuck, I'm glad you're back brother! Love the content! Keep it up! 👌👌👌🇨🇦
It's interesting seeing the differences between US and Australian trucks. Here in Aus, we have diesel powered air conditioning units on trucks to keep the sleeper cool overnight rather than for heating. It rarely gets cold enough overnight here to need to run the engine overnight for heating.
We have the litterally the opposite here in Canada. More diesel heaters than we have APU systems. These are around $15,000 to install so most companies won't get them.
south USA, i use my ac 8-9 months and then heating for 3-4 months. Yall got it hot but we got some dumb humidity. U ever seen an ac line POURING water out?
