Is it cheaper to buy a sleeping bag or buy sheets for the bed in the truck and bring a blanket or something with you?
I'm just throwing some thoughts around.
Sleeping bags cost from 40 to 200 dollars depending on which one you buy.
I think sheets, and a blanket cost from 0 to 40 dollars.
That brings up another question.
What sizes are the mattresses on a volvo or international? Are they Full size, or Twin size?

This will be the least of problems...

Not really, I've been out on the road before. I already know what to expect.
I'm just really broke right now. Cheese and crackers here I come... lmao... -
Deffinately get a matress pad.Makes for very confortable sleeping.Sheets and blanket.Don't know how big those trks are but the trks ive drove were all small and twin size.You should wait till you get A trk then you can purchase all the bedding the same day.

There making me go out again with a trainer for four weeks. So, I figure I will bring a sleeping bag or buy bedding before I go with him.
Maybe I should bring condoms for the first year. I SEE A LOT OF ####### ME IN THE ### FOR THE FIRST YEAR. lmao....

Oh well don't bring too much if going by Grayhound.I would then just stick with the sleeping bag and get all the other added extras when you're done with training.J_FROG and blairandgretchen Thank this.

Pattyj is right. Deffiniteley. Beds vary widely in size, usually around twin bed size, 76"x36". My Freightliner bunk is 79"x39". TwinXL. I'd say don't spend until you know the actual size. Peanut butter and jelly. I used to buy a loaf of bread and eat 3 or 4 slices for a meal. Plain bread...it's filling if not perfectly nutritious. No cleanup either!blairandgretchen Thanks this.

Ya, I'm about to go to walmart and buy either a sleeping bag or sheets. I'm going to go for what ever is cheaper.
-
Yep. Sleeping with the trainer is going to be the big problem.Drachen Thanks this.

Well I am male, so the trainer would have to be female. I doubt that will happen. It seems like the companies try really hard to make sure females are with females. To many sex issues arise with opposite sex trainers.
