Just Wanna Share My Beloved Condo!
Topic 16515 | Page 1
Fantastic!!! Thks for being generous. Miss Myoshi has a video of her cab here. Have u seen it?
That's really nice Flatie!
My Volvo is on the less expensive side. We didn't get that bottom bunk that splits open with the optional table in the middle. I'm jealous!
Thanks for sharing that Flatie. Very nice, love the watchdog.
Thanks Flattie.
I was wondering if AMX did the double bunk 780's - or the O/O configured with the table/bench seats.
Probably my #1 favorite layout for a TT. That would be my setup - sleep up top, leave the bottom setup as a lounge area. Downside of the 780 "workstation" setup is that the 4 pieces of the bench seat pillows are not as comfortable as a 1 piece mattress to sleep on. That and you lose a little under-bunk storage on the bottom.

Hey there!...Just noticed u based in RVA...
You with Abelene, Swift or Averitt?
I just need to convince wifey to let me loose for OTR...LOL
Also, how do we do PM's on this board...I just cannot figure it out
OTR:
Over The Road
OTR driving normally means you'll be hauling freight to various customers throughout your company's hauling region. It often entails being gone from home for two to three weeks at a time.
OOS:
When a violation by either a driver or company is confirmed, an out-of-service order removes either the driver or the vehicle from the roadway until the violation is corrected.
Dang, you got this trucker lifestyle thing figured out! I gotta use some of your ideas in my "house"

Hi rick all of our Volvo truck got that two bunk. Its really up to you if you wanna use it or not. Some people dont like sleeping at the top esp when they're team. Me as a solo driver I prefer this kind of set up so I will have room for my other stuff.

TT On Facebook
So I'm curious how do you guys set up ur condo? I drive volvo and I sleep at the top. I have APU , Inverter , 32 inch tv , DVD / PS3 , Microwave , Fridge , Stove , Rice cooker , Sink and many more! I live in my condo/truck and I love it! Btw, still trying to figure out how to mount my tv its too big to my built in mount. Looking for some tricks with out drilling a hole.
So here's my house just wanna share guys :)
APU:
Auxiliary Power Unit
On tractor trailers, and APU is a small diesel engine that powers a heat and air conditioning unit while charging the truck's main batteries at the same time. This allows the driver to remain comfortable in the cab and have access to electric power without running the main truck engine.
Having an APU helps save money in fuel costs and saves wear and tear on the main engine, though they tend to be expensive to install and maintain. Therefore only a very small percentage of the trucks on the road today come equipped with an APU.
