Are a lot of these trucks refrigerated? Are they idling simply because the engine is the primary power source that keeps the refrigeration unit running? My most recent Subaru has automatic idle stop/start intended to reduce idling waiting at traffic lights but makes sure cabin AC, battery levels etc aren't compromised.
