– Steve F.
“Actually, I think your product should be at every major truck stop and rest area. It only makes sense. They [society and government] say we need solutions to idling and IdleAir is one, yet its not that available. It should be at the front of diesel priorities and get a budget to be everywhere.”
– Shanon S.

– Stan Meheltz, @Stanontheroad
“To all my fellow IdleAir users that smoke, I want to thank you for being respectful and courteous by not using the few non-smoking spots that IdleAir has provided at select locations.

It took awhile for us to figure out how to get everything up and running, but throughout it all, he was patient, nice, and helpful. A very special thank-you definitely goes out to him. Also, although we didn’t need it, it was awesome that this location had loaner tv’s for drivers who do. We’ve only used IdleAire a couple times, but every time we’ve been impressed with the stellar customer service we’ve received. We wish you were everywhere!”
– Michelle & Jonathan B.
“THERE ARE MANY REASONS WHY I KEEP STOPPING HERE AT YOUR LOCATIONS, BUT ONE OF THE MOST IMPORTANT IS CONSISTENCY IN HOW I AM TREATED BY YOUR STAFF AT ALL LOCATIONS. HERE AT HURRICANE MILLS, TN, IT IS NO DIFFERENT. THANK YOU AMBER FOR YOUR THOUGHTFULNESS AND HELP. WHEN I COME TO ANY LOCATION, I’M TREATED LIKE A “VIP”! IT’S NOT AN EASY LIFE OUT HERE ON THE ROAD, BUT YOUR SERVICE (AND STAFF), MAKE IT A LOT MORE LIKE HOME! THANK YOU VERY MUCH AMBER!”

– Steve Milam
“At the current fuel prices one hour of idling equals one gallon of fuel burned. At 3.959 per gallons of diesel IdleAir is almost $2 cheaper then idling. So I pay the 2.09 per hour not to mention the wear and year on the engine. Idling can damage an engine over time plus it’s better to sleep with no running truck. And better for the environment… That’s why I have IdleAir hooked up to my truck right now. Wife and cats love it, so do I. Thanks”

Thank You for all you do Tabitha! I also needed to call your call center in Knoxville, Lawanda treated me with the same sense of importance. Thanks for being consistant on that matter Lawanda! IdleAir is so very important to my wife and me as the truck is our home. I do wish that you had more locations like the ones in Benson and San Simon AZ, but where ever the location is, IdleAir is a MUST HAVE!”

– Debi Allen

“I tried IdleAir for the first time today and I am forever hooked!…I have been OTR for a while now. I never considered IdleAir an option until I recently became an IC. I knew it existed, I just didn’t care about wasting the diesel cause I wasn’t paying for it. It is over 100 degrees in Laredo today, and only 65 in my truck because of IdleAir. I love not having to idle the truck and the staff at the Pilot down here is amazing! The guy took the time to go through everything with me and answered all the questions I had. A truly positive experience in a normally aggravating place! :)”

What a delightful person! She was knowledgeable, helpful and took the time to patiently explain the service in detail. She had a wonderful sense of humor and that was so refreshing after a long day of driving. She is a real credit to your company.”
– Jean K.
“I needed to contact your company and ask that you pass my thanks on to the guy you have working in St. Louis…He drove me up to the truckstop in his own car and waited for me to get done with my business inside before driving me back to the truck. I recently started driving again after a hip surgery and walking is still painful after the ordeal. Your man noticed me limping and decided to help out. Please let him know that a simple act of courtesy does not always go unappreciated.”
– Kevin B.
“I used IdleAir alot when it was around. I saved alot of money because i didn’t have to idle my truck.

I hope to see more open up.”

We have an Tripac Apu but It’s nice not to have the wear and tear on it and the noise plus the gallon or so fuel it would have burnt tonight.”

“Why wouldn’t you use the service? At four bucks a gallon for fuel, ten or even twenty bucks a night is still less money. If you’re a company driver who can’t figure out that saving your company that money every night would equate into a pay raise, then you need to take an ownership viewpoint of your job and see how much you are costing
them/you.”
– Glen Hand

Worth again now. I come here every month or so. I call it home.. this crew is fantastic.. they make sure that everything is up and running.. they offered to get me water, food,..I’m so appreciative to have a stop that is so nice and attentive.

My wife says to tell you he’s the one who wears the cool plaid shorts! He answered all of our stupid questions, got us started both times, and was very friendly and nice the entire time, even though I’ll bet we were annoying! I’m going to note this on the feedback on your website as well. We never used IdleAir before stopping in Knoxville a couple weeks ago, mainly because we used to have an APU, but now that we don’t, we’re hoping to be able to use your services a lot in the future. Also, the gentleman on your 800 number, even before we stopped at Knoxville was very helpful.”
– Jonathan & Michelle Bush
“For a company driver with no a.p.u , IdleAir has been a blessing. I would say that all the “nay sayers” have probably never tried the service.

“I was very saddened when IdleAire closed it’s doors but, was HAPPY when the NEW IdleAir begun to open up under the new management. Like all the other IdleAir users who is un-happy with TA / Petro for not keeping IdleAir, I wish I had a choice to buy my fuel elsewhere but my company will not let me. The IdleAir staff I have had contact with are very helpful and will try to make my stay as comfortable as the IdleAir system will let me and that is important in very hot / cold times. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!”

“First time back staying at an IdleAir location. Last night Jackson Ga TA. Pulled into a spot went over to the office with my old (same) Idleaire card, said to the attendant “hook me up”. He swiped the card, there was my old balance ($35.00) I was good to go. Had a good nights sleep, no trucks idling along side of me, nice. I did not get the guys name there at that location but he was doing a helluva job, hooking people up with new/old service and inserts for the windows.”
– Ray Warner
“[The IdleAir site manager] had one spot close to the office where he parks his car. ( reserved for bobtails) he moved and let me park there and use the service. Having an older truck, my airs not the greatest and I hate to idle my clunker 8 hrs straight after havin driven 11. hats off to the tech. Being leased to Dart, I’m allowed to put the cost on my fuelcard. I like that A LOT!”

“I use [IdleAir] every time I can. Saved my life in Hurricane Mills, TN last November [2010]. Unbeknownst to me, my heater core had busted, when I went to turn on my heat that afternoon, no heat. By 8 pm, temps had dropped to 20’s. My hands were numb as I hooked up the tube. Thanks IdleAir!!”
– Michael Wayne Stanley

– Kevin Jewell
“We use [IdleAir] for the WiFi its better than what the trk stops have for the same $$”
– Vickie Yarbrough
“I run hotshot pilot/escort with an F-350 so I don’t get thru truck stops that often any more. [IdleAir is] a good service and glad to see it back.”
– Robert Houghton
“I just wanted to let you know that I stop at the Hurricane Mills, TN location often and use IdleAir and love it and Melissa does a great job and is always there to help. I just wanted to let you know what a great person she is and also let you know what a great job she does.”
– Danny Vicars
“I am presently hooked to IdleAir in Ft Worth TX. The attendant went above and beyond to make me feel welcome. NICE!”
– Howard Wright
“I’m a member of IdleAir and all I got to say is I love it. Especially when your fan motor under the bunk goes out and doesnt blow any cold air in an 80+ degree truck in southern Florida and in Macon, Georgia.”
– Larry Bogard
“I have tremendously enjoyed my stay at the Jackson, GA facility. Got alot of quiet sleep, not trying to sleep with the roar of a generator or engine. I LOVE MY IDLEAIR. I love my IdleAir so much that the pic you see above is my screensaver on my Blackberry…LOL. Need some T-shirts too.”
– Audrey Stowers
“I still have my inserts for a Pete and a KW, got to try it at Knoxville the week they opened it, was really nice.”
– Chuck Shepard
“Tried this when it was still in “trial”, & it was very nice, especially in that W. Memphis heat-my dog was in heaven
😉 It’s very nice to see them supporting The Driver”
– Victoria Tickler
“I didn’t see the post about “electricity only plug in”. Are you going to be able to make those available? We would definately be able to use that option.”
– Lanie Allton

– Caitlin Alyse Foulkrod
“Cant wait to see Denver up and going again!”
– Doyle Hasten
“I recently stopped in to the pilot in Fort Worth Texas and was able to utilize Idleair and what an experience. The staff was courtesy and professional and pleasant to deal with. They looked up my old membership and I had 28 dollars and change on it! That money has been sitting there for well over 18 months and it was still there! Thanks for the great service and making america & trucking a better place!”
– Seth Ward
“I wish IdleAir was at more truckstops. Seeing how we can not idle our trucks, someone needs to come up with something. It is not right that the people in their fancy offices can go home and sleep where it is nice and cool while drivers have to suffer. It’s not right.”
– Donna Abell
“I recently visited your Bakersfield CA location. I am so happy to see you have returned! More importantly I am completely wowed and impressed by the outstanding service and professionalism of your associate…Please recognize her and send her my thanks and regards for her service and courtesy. A fine asset to your organization! Thanks again for coming back and for employing such wonderful people!”
– Mike Bradshaw

– Amanda Covington-Morrison
“We are Gold level members and have been for some time now. We were so glad to see IdleAir re-open!”
– Ann Burt
“Ya’ll gonna thank IdleAir this summer when your APU aint working and the Wrench at your shop says it aint a Out of Service item so it dont take priority cause we way to busy to fix it.”
– Richard Wilson
“Was wondering if you guys are going to open IdleAir back up in Ontario, CA and Barstow, CA…both TA’s? It is soooooo necessary there. I’m sick of idling my engine. I have an APU, but the starter went out. Anyway, its just not the same. I spent over $800 a few years ago in the summer, from May to October. Might have been more. I’m with Landstar, and we value IdleAir!!! Please bring it back to the major truckstops…Oh yea, the other reason is because of my dog! I can’t leave her in a hot truck. With IdleAir I could have the A/C on and lock everything up. And she was cool. She has an enlarged heart and liver. Can’t take heat.”
– Audrey Stowers
“I’M BEGGIN YOU, IDLEAIR GOD, BRING THE UNITS BACK WITH A FIERCE VENGENCE!! IN ALL THE TRUCKSTOPS, SO WE DON’T HAVE TO IDLE OR USE STINKY APU’S! AMEN.”
– Audrey Stowers
“APUs are just loud fuel burners, IdleAir on the other hand burns no fuel, and the driver has no maintenance cost with it. Quiet way to stay cool, or warm and keep your trucks fluids happy too.”
– David Talley
“Please hurry and get IdleAire up and running in the states we need them the most…AZ, TX, CA, LA, AL, MS!! I miss the great A/C and the amenities!!!! It makes you feel like your in an apartment. Plus we can both leave the truck together and allow my 14 year old jack russel to stay in a cool truck.”
– Audrey Stowers
“The other night we hooked up the whole night for $14.00. So no matter what people are saying it was cheaper than idling all night. We have only had great service and the crew is great no matter where you stop.”
– Brenda Oppie
“I would like to tell you not only do the semis use your service, the sprinter vans do also. Expedite freight people need cool also! Thanks for coming back we enjoy your service!”
– Mrs. Hardin
“I was once a big IdleAir user, (check the record) but now all of the sites are out of route!!! And with fuel prices headed to the moon I need HELP. My dream is to once again be able to just pull into the truck-stop and hook-up to some good old cool AC and not have to run the truck all night. I look forward to the new expansion of your business.”
– Larry Bembry
“Fuel is a major expense today. Idleair might be the answer drivers. Could be good for all drivers. Look at fuel prices and this is getting cheaper by the minute….Drivers IdleAir is trying to get you what you need and at the price you need it. You might want to check them out to see if you can save some major $$”
– Jr Sampson
“This service is awesome! Much cheaper than idling the truck at a gallon/hr”
– Kris Barrantes
“Knew you’d be back I saved everything! We really need you this summer. Fuel prices so high companys hinting at firing company drivers for high idle! I dont sleep well idling anyway!”
– Margo Mitchell
“IdleAir, Thank you for the best TV on the road!””
– LaWanda Eckert
“@TATravelCenters I think you should work with @IdleAir so they can redeploy the idleair equipment you remove. Don’t destroy it #whatawaste”
– Carl Roseberry
“I’m a driver for FFE. I use to use Idleair’s WiFi because it was faster and better then most truckstops.”
– John Larrabee
“I had a situation where I had an alternator and it was failing. It was cold and it was raining. My wife was with me. The batteries were dying. The Volvo dealer did not open until the next morning. I went to the IdleAir at Doswell, VA and I got a space and hooked up and plugged in and it kept my batteries charged and kept us warm and kept it so the next morning, I could start the truck and drive the 4 miles to the Volvo dealer. If I didn’t have IdleAir, then I would have needed a tow, and IdleAir saved me hundreds of dollars.”
– Michael Ben-Dror
“Welcome back I’ve missed you!!!!!”
– Jeremiah Adams
“I never had a problem with IdleAir, had the best internet speed, good heat, good channels to watch. With wandering WiFi as truckstop WiFi its a waste of money at about 90% of the locations. I was mad when I found out IdleAir shut down. Hope you guys get back up and going again, so I can save some money!”
– Jason Coe
“I am just so glad you guys are back!! I have to tell you, IdleAir saved my life one year. We were running the West coast and broke down in Kingman Arizona. No air and a flat tire. It was 124 degrees out and the pavement was 135 degrees or better. Being from Ohio I had never experienced this. I was truly near death from heat exhaustion. We ended up at Bruce’s in Bakersfield and I spent the next 8 hours in the cool comfort of IdleAir. I truly think, if it were not for IdleAir, I would be dead. Thank you!!!!”
– Anne Constiner Kehoe
“The concept of the IdleAire technology was excellent. Unfortunately the way the business was run…..WAS NOT. I tend to respect those who believe enough in something to take an excellent concept and then show people they know how to do it the right way. Take a lot of guts to do that and I admire it. Like I said, after talking to [IdleAir] I believe they’re going to make it right. Keep posting everything that was wrong, I want to see if they fix them all : ) … I don’t recommend just anyone, and I believe these guys are doing their best to change the wrong way things were done in the past. If I didn’t believe that I wouldn’t be saying it and risking my reputation.”
– Allen Smith, AskTheTrucker.com
“I worked for a company that picked up the tab for the old IdleAire. I used it any time I could. It could not stop the truck from freezing my butt off in the winter, but my $20 plug-in 115v heater made up for it. I found their internet the best available.”
– Robin Blinn
“I used IdleAir anytime I could find it. I was saving money, more than the 10 or so gallons of diesel that idling all night wastes. I was saving on wear and tear on my engine and batteries cause I would use the 110 to plug my cooler in too. I would like to let other drivers know that IdleAir is a good deal, and does save you money, sleeping comfortably when it is hot out, and if you are connected when it is cold and have a block heater you do not have to worry about the truck not starting at the end of your break.”
– David Talley
“We can all help & recognize that we can make a difference… @IdleAir proved it today on #TruckerTuesday”
– Trucker Desiree
“Very excited to see that IdleAir is taking care of the truckers who make their business possible!”
