Creature Comforts On The Road?

Am seriously considering changing to a driving career and would really like to know which companies allow drivers creature comforts on the road. Would like to be able to have a small, real fridge (not a plug in cooler) and a microwave in the truck. Also a tv and laptop. Climate controlled sleeping by either idling, or some electronic gizmo, is a must.

I know many companies allow these comforts and some don't. Your knowledge appreciated. Thanks.

First, find out which companies dont allow any of those. Second, dont go to work for them. Nobody should have to put up with rules that prohibit a driver from his/her creature comforts...to an extent.
OTOH, some companies do have limits on inverter wattage, so you might take that into consideration that they all might not allow 2000 watts or whatever it takes to run a microwave and fridge.
