I don't have a CB yet, but I can't live without my mini fridge. It has saved me money in the long run.

I also have my iPad. It has some ebooks, magazines and I subscribed to my hometown newspaper and they send me electronic issues.

On my list of goodies to get once I get my truck assigned:

Refrigerator, microwave, CB, Crock pot, possibly a coffee maker, flat screen, 7" Rand McNally GPS, various audio books...

Have had my laptop with me throughout training and never even got it out of the bag... Will probably keep it with me, Just in case...

I'm sure there are other little goodies I want, like maybe a small electric skillet, etc.... We'll see...

Refrigerator, microwave, CB, Crock pot, possibly a coffee maker, maybe a small electric skillet.

If I can manage to cook a third as good as my wife, or, even better, when she's on the truck with me, everyone's gonna WISH it was available for sale!!!

My Oreo dispenser

My Oreo dispenser

I have my thermo electric cooler (Coleman), my crockpot, coffee pot, CB (Cobra 29 LTD Chrome), DVD player with built in screen and my iPhone.

Oh, I also have my Bluetooth headset with voice commands. But shhhhhh don't tell anyone.

That dispenser does not appear to be HANDS FREE!!!

The first thing I bought was a real mattress. Top of the line 17in plush baby. Unlike the three inch thick, rock hard mat that you sink into.

I also have an external.wireless hard drive with tons of movies, TV and music so when my internet drops I still have entertainment.

I bought extra phone batteries that charge so I always have at least two fully charged battery.

And of course my Blue Tiger. I had a blue parrot. But I couldn't listen to Pandora or media on it...just phone calls. BT let's me listen to music and movies
