Too me that would be a big problem. Not to mention all those around me....

This memory foam stuff is awesome. It feels like I'm sleeping on a cloud. Too bad I still didn't sleep. Its definitly a trust thing. Only time will tell.

It was a big hurdle for me too. So many signs pointed to her not knowing what she was doing. But she did, and does, and even if she don't, I'm still gonna sleep. You can call me if you want someone to talk to. I can pm my #, if you want me to elaborate on my perspective and limited experience.

they have this stuff called Neuro Sleep, drink a bottle before you go to bed and you will sleep for 8 hrs! It's the only way I could sleep when I was team driving! I buy mine at the Indian truck stop in Nevada everytime I go through there.
It's all natural, its got Melatonin in it. -
You should check the condition of the truck you are driving too. Start with those big "dog-bone" stabilizer bars that go from the frame to the axles. If you can move them, replace them. I did that on a volvo that I drove, and it was like a whole new vehicle. Also have someone check out the springs, bushings and hangers. Also you might need a new set of shocks on the back of the sleeper, and maybe even on the tires too.

You can buy melatonin suppliments at any walmart in the vitamin section...

I can sleep like doll in a moving vehicle. I dunno why but will attest it is scary. I trust myself but do not trust others when driving. No offense to anyone especially my friends on here. I would make a compromise and drive from 3pm-2am and see if she can do 3am-2pm. You both get day and night in the same package.
