Since we rarely leave before 9 AM and like to be off the road by 4 PM, I doubt that we cause that much disturbance.
My reason for posting is to point out that some units have to be idled to set up or break camp.
For our rig, leveling and extending slides requires the engine to be running. Works out OK, when we are setting up - gives the engine a cool down period.
Unfortunately, the engine must be running when we retract the slides and leveling jacks; thus, we do have a short idling time before leaving a site.
