    No.
    Labour market in Western Europe has changed so much the past decade that i have no idea.
    I guess not bad as it is a certified specialty field.
    Also look at the truck.
    Has a lot off extras which they use to atrack staff.

    as much i understand they did it because truck can fit into 19m law or 26m depends on road type where it is traveling.
    but i agree it is easier to make movable bunks.
    we sometimes use austrian made 3axle trailers that extends from 5.6 - 7.8m, when they extend drawbar and load with large front and rear overhang they fit 2x5.1m logs. they cost something like 53000-55000€ depending on equipment.
