    Once I get done with training and go solo my wife will be joining me on the road. Not as a driver but as a rider. Is the bed large enough to fit two people? Thank you for your replies.

    It's a twin sized mattress, most of the OTR trucks have double bunks. If somehow you didn't get a double you could ask for one.

    well the old saying is two deep and one wide.

    most beds are the size of singles for your house.

    Yes the bed will fit the both of you but does'nt give you much elbow room unless you both sleep at opposite ends

    The Cascadias are much bigger than the 670 Volvos.

    You could end up with a mid rise or coffin sleeper Volvo.
