Electronics recommended for new trucker

Hi Guys, last post today from me I promise! I was wondering if for a new trucker who is going to be going to Orientation next week than PSD/TNT if you could recommend some useful gadgets to have once I get my own truck and possibly during training examples: TV (When i'm out on my own) Fridge (When i'm out on my own) CB (When i'm out on my own) I was also wondering if you could think of anything else that would be useful for newer truckers and if you could recommend certain models. I would only use these gadgets when ABSOLUTELY necessary, and I would be sure to remain safe when using them. For example, I would only be using my headset while i'm able to do cruise control and still be looking around in all the mirrors and on the road to be sure i'm maintaining the correct following distance and all that. So, I want to know what you recommend getting and if you have specific brands you recommend let me know.

 

Yeah definitely no headphones, i'd be using a blue parrot headset once i learn the gauges/mirrors/traffic, meaning i'd be out on my own probably when I start using it. I'm going to buy an atlas and also use one of the electronic ones, i'd use electronic most of the time and back it up with the regular atlas like make sure that it gave the right directions and everything like that. I'm also thinking when i'm out on my own of getting a TV, Refrigerator, and a CB Radio..

 

I was looking at Garmin dezlCam™ 785 LMTS | Semi Truck GPS . Only thing i'd need to get is a extender to get it where I want it to be positioned on the truck. Yeah it's a bit expensive but it would be doable.

 

What about Sirius radio. Would it be easy to get one of the company mechanics to install?

 

I'd probably be eating out at first, maybe get a microwave and instant pot to help out with the cost at somepoint. I'm going with Prime and will be doing reefer. I'm planning on a TV and will either get an RM GPS or a Garmin. I definitely want a CB and a Blue Parrot headset or something like that. Gloves i'd have a couple sets, one specifically for fueling and one for the other stuff and replacements for those. Wifi would be a good idea so I don't have to use the truckstops all the time. And i'd have plenty of things to keep me warm clothes wise, and I heard that Prime has Sirius in their trucks if you pay for the service so I might consider that as well.
