    It statistically placed. I'll give you the tour! Passenger side- seat organizer in the front, behind the seat is a tv tray table to put between both front seats for cooking only. Bottom cabinet, cleaning supplies and power cord, fridge is in its hole, my tv has a butt and is in its hole. Above that I have 3 containers that contain plates, foil, hot sauce, salt; everything to prepare and enjoy a meal on the road. Also I have my DVDs and my flight joystick in there. Bottom bunk - nothing but a nice comfy place to lie after a day on the road. Top Bunk - the mattress is push up on its side for my bag that has my clothes, shower bag, microwave and 2 containers that contain my small steamer, small George Foreman, hot plate, utensils, no pots or pans yet. Don't know what pot or pan I want yet. There will only be one of each due to space. Driver side Cabinets - Bottom contains my small 12-volt car vac, 12-volt water pot (truck stop item), portable lunch box (another truck stop item), The box that contains Paper logs, accident kit/pee test kit. Above the pull out desk is my small compact laser printer, above that is wardrobe cabinet. It's divide into sections, bottom left is the pantry with the right personal hygiene. my laptop splits the zones. My laptop travels in its box and only comes out when i need it. Above that is a box of trip envelopes that Inherited with the truck and the liner for my coat and my Hard hat from TXI. Coat hangs behind drivers seat. Left luggage bin - 301 tool set, flash light, 3 hammers, push broom head, wash bucket. Center - nothing. Right side - I don't think I have anything there! Small tools I use often are up above the center upper console. Above that is my permit book. my Clip board with my printer paper rides in the passenger seat. My 100oz super mug rides in the floor for easy access while driving!

    As I said statistically placed.

    I talked to him while they were trying to get the truck started. Someone left something on and I was deader than a grave yard. He said that the Freightliners were kicking the hell out KW/Petes butt in fuel economy and they want to test one out to see if the Paccar mx-13 engine would out-perform the DD15. Only time will tell I guess.

    I think it's on the old thread. I forgot who posted it. I saw bits and pieces of it before I switched to something more entertaining.

    From what I've heard PA roads not good. Penndot does suck an awesome job!

    I got stuck in Boston waiting for a load for a few hours. Finally got one just in time for an almost white out on the Mass Pike. What a wasted day >200mi with one stop and the "only thing" he could find doesnt load until the AM.

    Yeah. Brings back memories of high school. Stopped in Carlisle at the Petro. Got out to check reefer and the lot is a sheet of ice. The turnpike was surprisingly rather dry.

    This Petro is a disaster area. Folks just parked whereverthehell they wanted to. Trucks parked in, many having just dove in head first into anything that appears their truck would reasonably fit in. What a mess.
