    That’s the great thing about being a truck driver in America. It’s so big and there’s so much too see, no two days are the same. I’m a U.K. based truck driver, but deliver and drive all over Europe so for a few days I can be down south in sunny warm Spain, then 3/4 days later, I find myself driving up into Scandinavia where it’s snow weather and freezing surrounded by snow capped mountains. Something different every day and I get paid for it. Plus I enjoy my own company so I can easily chill in the bunk area with my I pad banging a movie on Netflix, Amazon prime etc.

    Honestly, probably the best custom made (by ARI, I presume?) sleeper I‘ve seen in such videos - has everything you need, fits two, but isn‘t too big and too long, only 105 inches. Every truck sleeper should be like this. I like this guys general attitude, but also towards hygiene - very cool!

Not to big or small. Just about right. Thanks for sharing! See you out there. I'll be the one with a tree embedded in the trailer while dragging a full street light pole behind me.

    Even if you only get a standard truck with a bunk and small kitchen area remember there’s good truck stops all over the country where you can take a nice shower and get some real nice food. Although if you eat out every night it gets expensive. That’s why I only eat out maybe once a week, most days I cook in my truck cabin. Saves money🙂👍🏻

    Yes, correct. The pic we used as an example was from another delivery we made for Floyd. We didn’t have a pic of the Koenigsegg delivery unfortunately.

    Woman are NEVER SATISFIED, lmao. I have an electric board myself, he doesn’t at all look like the type to pull that board out and rip it. Hopefully I see him at a truck stop or on the road and go ride with him, seems like a cool dude
