Cool great content. I recently picked up a folding table from Walmart. Open it fits perfect on the passenger side. I set one side padded on dash and the other on a cooler in the seat. It gives me a counter top to chop veggies. Etc. When you want a place to move things it a good size table to get things out of the way. I have bungied coffee maker around setback.

Been a driver for 8 years. Big help! I like it. Gave me a few ideas. I'm thinking I'm probably going to cut out some carpet to lay over the plastic flooring. All of the food bits, dirt, sand, hair/skin shedding are my biggest problem over the road. That way I can just fold it up take it outside and beat the grime out of it. Also... spills will end up in the carpet rather than in the corners into the foam underneath the plastic flooring. A worn out rug can be easily replaced. Especially convenient for a company driver like me. I like your bed table idea! Though, I'm thinking I might just sleep on the top bunk and keep my mini deep freezer on the bottom bunk with the toaster-oven, hotplate, and other gear while I sleep up top. Though I need to figure out a way to keep myself from rolling off. Even though the truck ain't going no where, my dumb self will find a way to roll off that bunk. Comment if you have any solution for this?

Love the ideas I drive a 2012 freightliner 13spd and having space is always good my wife found pen holder for the visor on Amazon and it works great and drove with it down on the I 10 east and west bound and the roads are rough and my pens did not fall I highly recommend a pen holder from Amazon they are 7.99 a piece. Let me know if you can't find it I'll help you out and thanks again for the ideas

This was very useful, thank you. I'm looking into getting my CDL soon and I'm trying to cram all the nitty-gritty down-to-earth trucking. Helpful "how to live in a small space" tutorial vids like this are exactly what I want to see. I'll be getting accustomed to driving OTR and handling a big rig, so any area where I can learn from someone else's experience and not have to reinvent the wheel means that's one less worry.

I cut my paper towel sheets into 4 separate sections and stack them. I found most of the time I don’t need full or half sheets with select a size paper towels. Makes paper towel rolls last a lot longer. For those that don’t want to buy a stand alone GPS there is a free GPS for trucks for your phone, the application is called “Hammer” it’s a full featured application. You can test it out and it is free to use. You have to register the application in the beginning just like many other applications, there are no drawbacks to this registration process, no advertising etc etc. I highly recommend this from my experience with it. I listen to a lot of music while driving from my stereo. Both KZbin and Apple Music. During my down time I use headphones. I have the Sony WH-1000XM4 headphones. They are full featured with the companion Sony application downloaded on your phone. Both Wired and Bluetooth over the ear. These are highly recommended in KZbin headphone reviews.

I like that shelf over the bed. Did the same thing in my 2018 International LT. Single bunk with a low roof, I also put a wooden shelf across the back wall of the bunk that holds the toaster oven and all my Cheerios. My Coleman fridge goes on the lower shelf over my feet and I also have enough space on it for my coffeemaker or meal prep. Without all my additions, I have a 36 inch bed and two small shelves and maybe 14 inches from the bed to the back of the drivers seat. I’m only out one week. I’d really like to see how you cook. I have a George Forman but it’s slow. I’m thinking I’d like to use a butane stove and frying pan. Faster. Or maybe an electric frying pan. I have 2 milk crates that are for storage, and stackable, with a specially fitted wooden seat on top for a stool, I can eat my meals at my wooden shelf kitchen area, and lean back against the drivers seat edge. I also put a sliding shelf under the shelf that I can pull out and support with a couple of sticks to give more counter room. The milk crates will also double as a stair stepper workout if I want. Thanks for the video. I’m looking for quick and easy ways to cook healthy, real food, during my 10 hours off, and ways to exercise. Thanks for the video. Keep posting.

Thanks for the detailed breakdown! It's very feasible that someone's take home pay could be 50k! That's phenomenal for a beginning driver. I start my CDL school tomorrow and I think I'm going to sign on with Maverick after I complete my CDL school. Thanks!👍

BRMDT portable toilet for camping on Amazon. And thank you for the tips I never thought I’d say this but I prefer to crap and eat in my own truck after being on the road for a year. I do the same thing I crap in a bag and then I throw it into any bagged trashcan. And thanks for the laugh as well I know how frustrating it can be when something falls over or skills/breaks while you’re driving I can just imagine your reaction LOL
