Why Do moving companies have so many custom super sleepers?

United van lines, Allied, Mayflower - Like two-thirds of their trucks have those ridiculous things.

Are they just super rich? Am I missing out? I couldn't afford one of those things running with Landstar, even if I wanted one.

Or is there something about that type of trucking that requires a full apartment? Or is it just tradition?

 

That makes sense. Although I also stay out for months chasing the money, and I do just fine in my little $60,000 used Cascadia. I wouldn't want to have to worry about blocking every rest area with my mobile palace, and sticking 10 feet out into every truck stop parking lot. It probably helps that they usually have special fancy places to park.

Still, I wouldn't give up my disposable income and months-long world travelling vacations, just to have a Jacuzzi with me everywhere I go... But I guess those millionaires can afford both.

 

Yeah, that makes sense. They probably have to sit for a week in some random urban parking lot with no place to poop. I forget that they mostly do shows, versus moving regular people's household stuff.

 

Yeah, I've seen them at truck stops a few times, sticking out all goofy like, but it's rare. Where do they go at night? Maybe they have a fancy secret tunnel like when Homer Simpson joined the stonecutters.
