I'll just be happy to get MY own truck...lol

 

yeah i hear that and not have to get slipseated where you are in a different cab every other day and have to sleep on a pee stained matress or something like that.

 

thought that they were taking the lw petes out bc of the roll over issue.....the lw internationals are nice as well not sure if they are still buying those though

 

All of the tractors are detailed immaculately before they are assigned, and the have a new mattress. Your truck is your truck, unless you take an extended leave of absence. Also, it's possible but unlikely you'd get a Pete; we're getting rid of them.

They're not that small. I manage to get to a Walmart when I need to.

 

I drive a LW Prostar International. I Pulled the passenger seat, and there sits my frig. Behind that I have a 3 drawer cabinet (Plastic) for my clothes that I put in. On top of that I have my Microwave
I have standard cabinets at either end of the bunk for food, etc. Over the seats are shelving units that all my paperwork and books go. Maps go in the cabinet where my CB is. Bunk is plenty long, Im 6'2 and 240 lbs and I still have about 12" at the foot of the bunk where my shower bag and clothes (dirty) go. Under the bunk is my tools, heavy coat, spare parts etc. Behind the drivers seat is still open but am thinking of dropping in another cabinet there.
My laptop bag is on the floorboard infront of the Refrig.
Hope this helps you

 

Hey Highway.....If you don't mind and have the time, could you take a few pics so we could see how that setup looks? I will be starting orientation soon and if all goes well, should have a "cute truck" by the end of Nov or 1st part of Dec.

Thanks,
Sly

 

yeah i guess you have to get pretty clever sometimes to get what you need in the cab. I can figure some stuff out too. Ill try to get my CB in front and a 2m rig in the back for my off duty time and for listening to severe weather conditions.

 

you dont have a choice as a company solo driver they just give you whats availabe. The have LW Pete, Cascadia, Prostar and KW
