    Duffle bag(s) work best. to heck with "bedding" bring a sleeping bag. Due to the top bunk in the new trainer trucks ability to fold into the wall, there are no cabinets on the top or sides of the sleeper berth. My motto, "bring what you want, either sleep with it or stowe it." My students are given the largest cabinet in the truck (the one under the spot for the fridge or cooler, they have the entire top bunk, and if necessary, 2/3 of the space under the bottom bunk as well. So again I say, DUFFLE BAG(S), PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE.

    Well I'm on my way after 7 months of hem-hawing around. Got my recent experience in and called Adam and said ok lets do this. Approved and on my way 3/15/13. I'm a little scared about flatbedding but I do need the exercise that comes with it. Look forward to meeting some of you guy's when I get on the road. Seems like a good group of guy's.
