I’ve noticed something in most trucks that have space for a microwave and/or a buckle to hold one in place. 99% of the time there is a 12v plug behind it.....why would trucking manufacturers but a 12v plug in a designated “microwave” place in a sleeper?? You need at least 1500w to run a microwave correct? So what’s this logic?

It's made for the old tvs. .. the old cube ones. Not flat screen. Flat screen has a different mount. They just used a seat belt for old school way.

I've had tv's strapped down in those cubby holes since the early 90'sKB3MMX and Rideandrepair Thank this. -
I’ve seen some owner operator truck with regular plug in those spots instead of 12v plug. I guess if it’s a base model, you get 12v.
Rideandrepair Thanks this. -
10-4 ok sorry probably sounds dumb but couldn’t figure out why they’d do that when 12v microwaves (besides 1 model) don’t exist. Gotcha. Thanks for informing lol
driverdriver and Rideandrepair Thank this. -
In my company s T680s they have the 1800 watt inverter behind the passenger seat midways up so your microwave cord could reach the inverter easily
