    I am going to be team driving for Schneider... Anyone know if they are a good company? Also, do most OTR trucks come with a refrigerator and a microwave in the birthing? Im a cheapass ha ha.

    I'm sure a truck has been used in birthing before, but not all that often. Usually, these days, that's done in a hospital.

    HUH? That didnt make much sense. where did you get hospital out of that? My question is do OVER THE ROAD/LONG HAUL trucks with "birthing" or the space where your mattress is in have a small refrigerator and microwave in it... Thanks for the needless/pointless/dumb/... I could go on.... reply.

    To answer your question trucks don't come with a cooler or microwave these things you bye. You need to know that there is also no power there either you also need to supply talk to your company about it. It's called a sleeper:biggrin_25519: or berth.
    Good luck on your team'n.

    Beat me to it ... after all, he's a Texan.

    Then again, maybe he was just blending "that berth thang". :biggrin_25523:

    SNI only allows inverters for sleep apnea machines. You would not be able to run a fridge or microwave in the berthing area. O/O can install them, but they don't allow them on company trucks.

    They make small inverters that will plug into a cig lighter. that way you don't have to have SNI install an inverter. Not sure they will pull enough watts for a microwave or a fridge though. I have one that I've used for my laptop and cell phone.
