    Good point Everett, particularly for large company drivers. I was in three different tractors in my time with Knight.

    I agree with marmonman and big rigger. I drove for several years with a map a phone a bag of clothes and a cb from a pawn shop. Keep an ear out on the radio for someone selling things such as an inverter or cooker you might be able to get one cheap. Keep in mind it may not work also. Truckin isnt a vacation it is work, so do your job and worry about the luxuries later.

    I have a 1 qt crock pot, microwave, keurig pod coffee pot, refrigerator from sears and a 1500 watt inverter. I carry 7 gallons of water. I eat in the truck. T/a and petro food is over- priced and horrible. I drink kool aid that I mix in Gatorade bottles and keep cold in the fridge. Walmart brand costs $1.07 for enough to make about 10 bottles. I eat salads when I'm lazy and just about anything I want when I have the time and energy. I make a microwave omelet with fresh tomatoes and onions and whatever else sounds good. Oatmeal takes two minutes and costs about 15 cents. Sandwiches for lunch with lettuce and tomato and dinner can be almost anything you want. You can eat well on less than $50 a week. Maybe I should do a cooking segment in my future videos. I run mostly I-40 and I-80 from Cali to Ohio. If you see me along the way don't hesitate to strike up a conversation. I'll show you the kitchen.
