    Tarp the front as much as you can. Drive real fast so the rain goes over the top instead of hitting it.

    In reality though I keep a couple small pieces of old tarps to use in situations like this. Also have a 10x10 that I keep on the truck at all times. I agree that rolling out a second tarp for 2 ft sucks.

    I also like @snowman_w900 idea of double charge. All tarp jobs should be charged by the number of tarps used.

    Flat tops are for running. You only need them to sleep: not to hang out ;)

    That said if I ever have to sleep in a truck again I'm not looking for it to be a flattop..

    I agree, if all I did was drive and sleep I'd do it.

    As it is right now I sometimes spend days sitting at a power plant because the load could be ready any second and they pay us to sit on site so we can load and go. I need space to move around inside when that happens.
