    With the shape some of the restrooms in, going in the truck is much safer. Just what happens to all that stuff in that thing in case of a bad wreck? They do make some that are pretty tight now, but you know Murphy.

    I've used a similar camping toilet before. The hand water pump was kind of weak. You could probably just use water bottles to fill or rinse the bowl if the pump isn't enough. If you use it infrequently like only for emergencies, as well as dump it every chance you get, then you shouldn't have any problems. Disposal shouldn't be too bad since you can walk it to an RV dump site at a rest area. Especially if you only urinate in it.

    They're not very comfortable since they sit low. You could probably put it on a riser, then secure it to the floor with ratchet straps or something that won't make it too hard to remove for dumping. Storage could be an issue. Replacing the passenger seat with the toilet is a good solution.

    As a team, I agree with the others that you should just stop whenever you need to go. As a solo driver, I can see it being used at those truck stops or parking areas that close at night and there are no bathrooms around. A lot of male drivers take it for granted to just go outside or hold it, but a lot of females can't.

    He can remove passenger seat and bolt it down. Codriver can use crapper even when truck is rolling, just don't forget safety belt should be ON.

    The way he drives. The passenger will make good use of that crapper.

    Do they make air ride crappers so you are not forced pooped on every bump? I probably would not enjoy the splash back that much.

    No lol just no!
    That’s like a toddler seat ;)
    Although it might work in a pinch. My body won’t bend like that. Another thing. Are you guys company drivers? If so, they may not approve of it. Ours won’t allow it due to hazmat ;)

    O/O? Just go with a new custom sleeper One big enough to hold everything.

    notice he never said a word about crapping in it yet everyone is talking about taking a dump in it, as if stepping in puddles of pee in the pilot restroom is so much more sanitary, and you dont wanna smell that in your truck, so much better to sit in a stall and smell fatty next to you grunting lol

    To be fair, the title of the thread says crapper and not toilet.
