    Hey there, just started working here at USX and wanted to get some advice before I finish my last couple of weeks with my trainer.
    I need recommendations for equipment in the truck.
    Inverter,cb,fridge, so on and so forth.
    Any recommendations would be appreciated. Also wanted to xpress (see what I did there) how much I'm enjoying working here. Already been from Tunnel Hill to Shippensburg. Looking forward to heading out west!

    Already have all of these. Was thinking more along the lines of when they put me in my own truck.

    Get a CB....and turn it on. Everything else you will acquire over time unless you are going to drop a few hundred bucks at the Peelot from the get go.
