Not to pee in your Cheerios but before you think about carpet be mindful of the places you deliver and the freight you haul. When I did end dump I put carpet squares in the sleeper but left the floor in the cab plastic or whatever. Made sweeping out dirt, and sand inevitability tracked in from the quarry a breeze. I’m in a Pete now with carpet everywhere and drag around a hopper bottom. No matter how clean and cautious I try to be I blow it out with an air gun everyday and vacuum it every weekend trying to get fish meal out of it. If not, the flies in here just get bigger and stronger.D.Tibbitt, Rideandrepair, bzinger and 5 others Thank this. -
I just installed a pull up bar. There is nothing else I need reallyKB3MMX, Rideandrepair, Tug Toy and 2 others Thank this. -
I generally ad a number of woven blankets and a pile of body length pillows among other things. That way you can make a igloo of sorts when waiting in a dead truck deep in wyoming for road service. A big candle goes along with that. Just have it on the floor between the seats or where the cab sleeper divider goes.
As far as fluff, I just leave it factory. Easier to clean and disinfect.KB3MMX, Rideandrepair and tommymonza Thank this. -
Taking out the passenger seat makes a world of difference sometimes. (With the space savings and what not, can build an organizer for tools or just leave it empty) ////A fold out chair too, to sit outside with in the shade somewhere. A fridge, a skillet to cook with. A nice mattress, a nice pillow, name brand comforter with a plush blanket underneath like the hotels do. Etc etc
Some laminate flooring like @HoneyBadger67 would be awesome. Nice job!Rideandrepair, tommymonza, Tug Toy and 1 other person Thank this. -
