Setting up new truck for solo OTR

Id focus on just the day to day stuff that makes life on the road easier. never mind the TV and gaming and even the CB until he gets a few months under his belt. He may hate trucking or get fired.

A good phone mount, a (trucking) Bluetooth headset, a truckers GPS, charging cables (most modern trucks have regular outlets but also the cigarette lighter ones too), a small rechargeable flashlight, small office supply stuff ( tape, scissors, small stapler, highlighter, sharpie, calculator, pens etc) A broom for sweeping out trailer, a 4 cup coffee maker.

I use a tablet with unlimited data from verizon for watching video/internet. I have a tv but I rarely use it cause no real WiFi and you have to let it search channels everywhere you go. But you can get a lot of channels at times but then you have to flip through 90 channels to find something decent it’s too much trouble.

 

Great suggestions 4way! Best phone mount i have ever discovered:

Advance Auto Parts - Down for Maintenance

It's been on the truck windshield since August and hasn't fallen off once. Phone has never fallen out of holder and wireless charging is just awesome! You can turn it portrait mode if you wanted to use it as a gps in conjunction with your truck gps.

Only complaint is that on a pixel 7 when it auto clamps it will turn volume down sometimes.

 

I saw this at wal-mart yesterday.

reminds me of the movie “idiocracy” that a grown man could be like this.
