As a driver that’s never been otr what are some truck accessories y’all recommend having? Inverter, Cb radio, stuff like that.

 

I always have a cb. A good gps garmin or rand McNally. Im kinda old school. I still carry my rand McNally road atlas. Its like my safety blanket. I wouldn't invest in a power inverter till ya find out if they will install it or not. Our 760 model trucks have small fridges in them. So once ya get in a truck ya can decide if that's enough fridge space or not. I still have our plug in cooler in here but there r 2 of us in the truck. Of course have plenty ya know clothes an blankets an such. First aid stuff. Winter is a coming so be prepared. We have a tv an dvd player but don't use em much at all.

 

Yea it's more often than not ya see where most of these truck stops are surrounded with extra land they should've utilized for extra space.

 

To add to that, a good blue tooth headset preferably a Blue Parrot, microwave, some super basic tools including a hammer, hot sauce of your choice, and some entertainment items such as a laptop.

 

I have mostly everything I need then. I believe in carrying tools. I don’t like to sit in the side of the road

 

If you ever need to know a good place to stop or just tips and tricks in general, feel free to @ us. I check this thread and the forums in general a few times a day.

 

I've always installed my cb. It just hooks up in the overhead.

 

Actually the state labor board will recover all money owed to you free of charge. Even if you signed so sort of form it can only be enforced if it conforms with state or federal laws. Most states the costs of doing business can’t be charged back to a employee.
