What I mean is do i have room for one or is one provided?

 

sinister you start this coming tuesday. If so see you there. I just finished my phone call to Shirley for the conf number to get on the bus. I will arrive in texas Monday evening about 9pm. Figure i will sleep on the bus sunday night since there will be nothing better to do.

 

There is room for them. You provide.

 

Coleman makes an excellent cooler that plugs into a cigarette lighter plug. It will even freeze up after a week or two, so you have to unplug it overnight every week or so. It keeps drinks and food very cold! It also lays down and you can use it like a cooler, or stand it up like a minifridge. The door is reversible. Sold at almost all truckstops about $100.
Microwaves can be as cheap as $50 or even less, but cheapest ones are horrible underpowered and can't heat a cup of water in less than five minutes. Measure the cubby hole you want to keep it in, then measure them in store to make sure it fits. Be sure it's wattage on tag on back of it is less than your APU wattage by 200 watts or so or you'll be resetting your APU often when you use it.

You'll probably get a T2000 without an APU first, about half do have them now even on grad fleet. Small chance of a Pete, and almost every Pete has an APU. You'll drive that truck or one like it for first year or two at least before any chance at a newer truck like a 660 or a new Pete just off lease. Depends heavily on your performance, accident/incidents and your past driving record in a 4wheeler.

 

What's the word on these 700's? Are they discontinuing the 2000's or is stevens just phasing them out? If ya had your choice 2000, 700, or 660?
