    My lightweight cascadia came with a passenger seat, but I had them remove it just for the space. Now I have a milk crate and some bags in it's spot. I figured that even if I did keep it for a possible passenger, there wouldn't be enough room for us to sleep comfortably in the twin size bed!!

    Also, mine has two fuel tanks =P

    Hello Neighbor, are you a 48 state driver or regional? If prime has regional. I hope to join prime one day soon. I am a former reefer driver with a company i will not say right now hoping that prime will let me be one again. Health issues stop me from continuing my driving career, i am working on that tho.:biggrin_25519:

    I'd trade both of the seats in this cascadia for one comfortable one.

    We did not have passenger seats at Chippewa Motor Freight. They offered me a job with the safety department. I would have to use a folding chair when testing a driver. I turned down the promotion.

    I kept my passenger seat and had a little cooler by my seat. I liked it caused I could grab a cold drink even when driving.

    Whether you want a seat is up to you. But for record. Theirs barely enough room in a lightweight for one person.

    Soon you guys are gonna have me talked into doing flats with a full-size truck. A cooler between the seats would work. That's sort of what I had been picturing. Hadn't really thought about a mini-fridge in the truck before this thread. Seebs, how is the new job going?

    Folding chair when testing a new driver? Yeah, I think I'd turn that down too. Wow...:biggrin_25524:

    Howdy! I'm OTR with them and am fairly new. Sorry, not sure about regional stuff.

    Medic10, you could also be a trainer for a full size, I s'pose. =P

    He's not even a driver yet.

    That's about as smart as putting your safety director in a folding chair for driving tests.

    Of course, I guess that depends on who your safety director is.

    Check out the new Bose truck seat article (Pilot or TA Rag, I forget which.) Uses their noise cancelling technology to eliminate vibration. Think it was only $6000.00!
     
    heyns57 Thanks this.
