    No, the midroof Petes have no second bunk. No way to fit one in there. I can't even stand up in one.

    They also have two skinny cabinets that are about a foot wide and maybe five feet tall. Some more storage under the bunk and that's it. I kept my 12v cooler on the floor between the seats.

    We do have some Pete's that have condo sleepers, but not all of them have two bunks, strangely enough.

    The Petes are nicer trucks but the Freightliners have more room as far as storage goes.

    Thanks for the info, sorry didn't reply sooner. It's after 8 pm now here in Korea and it seems like that is when I get a little wifi .

    Sucks being in a Korean hospital watching Korean tv and no Internet access, but it has been 7 days since surgery and the doc took out half my staples and said I can go home tomorrow ,yahoo :)

    Working on an airplane and ruptured a disc. Had surgery on that disc before 27 yrs ago.

    What sucks is my wife went to the Philippines and had partial hysterectomy. Her mother and sisters are all there so we thought it would be best for her to go there. 3 days before she left I ruptured a disc but thought maybe it would straighten out in a few days.

    She wanted to cancel her trip but I said no problem I will be fine In a few days. A few days after she left I had a friend take me to the hospital for a MRI , I had been trying therapy and nothing worked out so the MRI showed I needed surgery on a severely ruPtured disc.
    I had my surgery last Thursday and she had hers the Thursday before. Now I am getting the rest of my staples pulled out tomorrow and going home ,she can't come home because she is too sore to fly and I can't go to our home there because I am too sore to fly.

    Talk about crazy timing, but we both feel a lot better.
