    Just my 2 cents. I would say it sucks to have that much free time to play PlayStation and 360. I keep a laptop with mobile wifi,I download movies and tv shows at home,Right now I am working on season 1 of Game of Thrones. Usually get to watch one show on a 10hr break. Then with paper work,shower and food it is time to crash.I play the games on my home time on the weekends.I have a Coleman cooler for food and drinks. Wife makes stuff for me to take to eat during the week.

    Rarely have time to play the games at all. I keep the PS3 for the blu-ray player mainly. After a day of driving i'm always too tired to even try to game.

    "Got it at walmart in Joplin or Ft Myers, plenty of room for the baby truckers in that Pro Star."

    I got mine at a TA for $95. It's about 18mos in use, doing great. My truck stereo plays my CD's, I read books and maintain my truck/equip, and like ETA don't have a lot of time for entertainment unless I get stuck somewhere resetting my 34hr clock. I am planning on purchasing a microwave, I think. I don't know what I'd do without my refrigerator...buy poison food at truckstops? Not going to happen. I use my laptop once in a while, but I use T-Mobile, and their service is not good. Verizon is probably the best for internet signal nationwide.

I prepare him enough food to last him a week or two and keep him stocked up on can foods and other meals. Except for a bathroom it truely is his home away from home. Safe traveling to you all.

    Tried the dorm fridge, cooler holds more and uses less power. Less chance of being woken up in the middle of the night for a battery alarm.
