Bring a fishing pole. It’s Wisconsin.
Seriously... The usual stuff. Ask Roehl. They’ll probably route you home. That’s so you can put all your stuff in your truck.
You’ll also want that coat inside your trailer. You’ll want it inside some of these cold storage facilities too.TravR1, lovesthedrive, mhyn and 1 other person Thank this. -
Oh... I forgot about the trainer. Bring ear plugs. You’ll thank me.tscottme, Metallica88, mhyn and 3 others Thank this. -

You will be in a double bunk truck. Problem is, it's almost impossible to sleep on the top bunk when the truck is moving; you will never get proper rest up there if the truck is moving. Some companies have rules against that also.
The bottom bunk is pretty comfortable when the truck is moving, but the top bunk is a few feet above the center of gravity, so it's like riding a bumpy roller coaster.
That's why you need a sleeping bag, to lay on top of your trainers bedding when you're resting and he's driving.Last edited: Jun 6, 2019
