Sleeping. If you are trying to sleep and someone keeps coming into your room it will wake you up. Sleeping is #1 priority when team driving. Falling asleep while driving is a death sentence.Sirscrapntruckalot, Lepton1 and TIMPTE 527 Thank this.

Dang I was hoping you had a good goat story, I'm bored today.
Sirscrapntruckalot and Lepton1 Thank this. -
Yes, it could. Have some shock absorbers perhaps and run some kind of vertical rail so that the bed would go up and down and not swing and it's could be a great bed for on the road.Lepton1 Thanks this.

That Bose seat technology in the bunk would be the ticket.

Just go buy a 3-4” memory foam topper in twin XL size. It will fit under the twinXL fitted sheet and make even the cheapest bunk mattress awesome.

Ok here is some sleep techniques and advice from me. Get the foam topper I mentioned. Get breathable heavy bedding (I luv my Cabela XL square sleeping bag). At night crank up the AC and fan. The noise helps drown out everyone else. Make sure all technology and charging lights are dark (covered). Make your area dark. Turn off tv and cell.
I get awesome sleep while OTR..CorsairFanboy and Lepton1 Thank this. -
Contrary to popular belief, there is no sound sleeping with team driving.
Lepton1, Studebaker Hawk and IluvCATS Thank this. -
Make sure your co-driver doesn't wet the bed....

Not sure if it’s standard equipment but my new 760 Volvo came with a factory memory foam mattress that is amazing, at least for a truck mattress. No topper needed
