    There is no way. A full sized refrigerator for your house is only 22 cubic feet.

    In the picture there is a cabinet above the bed in the corner. It has 3 liquid containers in it, bottle of orange soda, a liter sized bottle of water, and a half liter paper carton of milk. that's the refrigerator right? That space is about 2 cubic feet. Maybe 2.5

    Personally i think that's the worse thing about our trucks. The sleepers are not designed with a driver in mind. But that's probably because the manufacturers only consult the very big fleets who we all know don't give two sheets about their drivers. Even the pete 389 and kw w900 could have better designed sleepers, they they are much much better than any others they aren't perfect. If i ever order another new truck its either going to be a stretched daycab and sent to ari for a sleeper or it will be a factory sleeper but with no interior installed. Just the shell and I'll insulate it and build it my way.
