Hang the machine on a hook or from a cubby holes's edge or put it in a cubby instead of setting it on a table or the bed.or use a piece of wire coat hanger and make an S hook for your need. Coat hangers come in all diameters & weight capacity. I know some people only want a purpose-built & advertised item sold at a truck stop or they don't think it can be used in a truck. That's a mindset & self-defeating, IMO.
It's very easy to temporarily add a 12v outlet near the top bunk or solidly seat the machine's12v plug into a plug near the bottom bunk, or wherever the nearest 12v outlet may be located.
I'd need to have pics, measurements, & weight of machine & a pic of the bunks & location of power outlets to be more specific.Last edited: Feb 5, 2025

You can bring anything you can carry into the truck & your team driver will agree to or tolerate.

I heard the next gen Cascadia was going to have a dedicated CPAP spot next to the bed but the Indian and Eastern Euro drivers aren’t obese like American drivers so Freightliner axed that design feature.
