One of the more practical layouts I've seen. These custom sleeper designers are getting closer to hitting perfection. Only criticism is the toilet and fuel tanks.
Sleepers like these with shower/toilet are becoming more and more reasonable in my book because i only need to be at truck stop for fuel and take on water lol
I'd like to get something like that when I'm older now. I bring a couple changes of clothes, a pillow and a sleeping bag. I don't want to get too comfortable. I'm there to work and go home and see my family is my OTR mindset.
I believe this is designed for someone staying otr longer. Even I stay out 2-3 months. A couple of changes of clothes won't cut it. I'm here for the $$$ only.
There's nothing wrong with being comfortable and having some of the comforts of home. It's a positive environment for your mindset while you're working.
@@Daesha2u Months at a time? I was in the army, 19kilo, and deployed at 18yrs old (Kuwait then mission in Iraq). But damn I’ve never envied truck drivers. Thankless job away from home. Hard to develop a trustworthy relationship at home under those conditions.
I am amazed at the comments below. Think about the lay out... it's for a couple... DA. Many must not understand what this truck is used for. FYI they also get paid more then a team do because of what they are moving. Many need to stay at the airport for the pickup and then head out rested. The drivers do not leave the unit when they have cargo loaded. Stop for fuel and dump the system, add water and away they go an average unit will get 1750 miles with the larger tanks. This truck looks like it has the 90g X 2 180 x 8mpg = $1440 miles. Most units have 20g fresh water and 20g black/grey but they are both in one tank on this unit. Therefore 20/20.
Some years ago I looked at getting a Freightliner Century with a 96 inch Alumi-bunk Custom Sleeper and a 20 foot box. My cost was around $96k with everything I wanted, really wish I had been able to get the bank to finance it as I miss driving.
Totally agree, it's a human right to have adequate conditions when especially ya practically living in it more time than home. UK is the worst! There sleeper is basically a day bunk. No where to prepare a meal , do paperwork ect... You're literally stuck in the driving seat for the rest of you're misrable shift 😮💨 No wonder there's a shortage 🙄
At 8:38, that's actually our truck on the right. The Cascadia with the deer guard. We were in the Expedite Expo! We looked at the truck in this video. Very nicely done, really like the layout. Having one long usable counter in the sleeper really makes it nice!
@@jeffreyrimmer6449 It’s a 40’ straight truck. That’s a 20’ reefer box. This truck is set up almost like ours. A truck like this can easily gross $300,000. / year. Expedited and/or high value ( to the customer at least) freight. It has nothing to do with how much you can haul, but all about what someone is willing to pay you to haul it. These trucks are usually signed on with FedEx Custom Critical or Landstar Express America. Almost always with a team (usually same household) and we’ll typically run 150,000 - 175,000 miles a year. Never pull any type of trailer, but you do need a CDL class B to drive one, and a HazMat endorsement. We do all the lower 48 and Canada.
I'm watching this from England where we don't have amazing trucks like these. They wouldn't get round our city roads with that huge wheelbase! Truckers over here are lucky if they have a bunk at the back of the cab and a little fridge. My partner's son drives one and he basically roughs it on the road, even in a top range European truck. He cooks on a butane fired hot plate. Many truckers cook outdoors on camping stoves. As for showers and toilets well they rely on truck stops. Nothing like that in the truck. One question I have, which I hope a friendly US trucker reading this will answer for me, is how can a truck with such a small load space make any money? I don't see how a trailer is attachable to these kinds of trucks so I assume the only load space is the rather small built-in box behind the living quarters. Keep on trucking people!
This type of truck is meant for expedite loads. Loads a company wants shipped right now and can't wait. It has to go from a to b as quickly as possible. Obviously those loads cost way more. But the truck may be sitting around waiting for one of those loads. Hence the camper
Muy bien, ese camarote para esas trayectorias largas ideal y no parar, uno y otro viaje, pero no nos quejamos de lo que traemos cascada Epa10/ghg17/eurov. Lo que no me gusta, es que un arecargon, llanta delantera tronada o caen bache se rompe fácilmente y se daña. Felicidades por pensar más con ese camarote en los operadores 👏👏
Now we just need to work on making the truck itself lighter so that the additional cab space this layout gives doesn't take away from the useful load that it can pull. Remember, most of us are still capped at 80,000lbs GVWR.
Now that’s an awesome big rig semi truck… I thought this was crazy idea but hey there’s a market for everything these days, someone wants someone supply’s lol
This is not a semi rig, this is called an Expedite as the cargo box is attached to the chassis of the unit. This is used by some companies for smaller priority shipments.
@Jens Nobel I have seen parts sent from a company in Kentucky that made parts for Subaru in Indiana that had to be delivered by 0700 the day after being manufactured at 2200, this is what some call a small load priority ship. I was the one who loaded the truck.
In Europe we've got an extra 330mm(divide by 25.4 for the old measurement)to play with...Paccar DAF are the first to come with the big cab,unless you want to spunk £20k on an XL Volvo?
Question from someone thinking of going for his CDL; What do truckers think of extended-/custom-sleeper trucks like this? Must have? Jealousy? Interesting? Excessive?
Like I said, i'm thinking of going for my CDL. If i do, I'm planning on doing local/regional while I train, then maybe OTR. If I end up doing OTR, I'll be planning on getting a custom/extended sleeper like this beauty!!!
I can't imagine it being more than a single though. This is really not for a non-married team. And even for a non-married team, you'd want bunks. Heck, even if I had this solo, which I wouldn't, I might want the bunk so I didn't have to clear and break down the table every time I wanted to sleep. Or clear and break down the bed every time I needed to use the table.
Could be used as a RV also. The back could be used as a garage by making a ramp. The only complaint is that toilet position, it looks super uncomfortable.
The toilet bowl part turns when you need to so your facing to the front of the truck and you can rotate it back when taking a shower so it out of the way. Plenty of leg room for a wide stance. Lol.
I was thinking that too -- use it as an RV and take your car with you. Much less expensive than the $1 million+ RVs with built in garages and probably stronger too. Mileage might be much less, though -- not sure. However, I would think driving around in an obviously $1-$3 million RV with a built-in garage would be more of a security risk than in one of these.
Not understanding the 'expedite freight' business. Obviously this is freight that pays a premium for expedite, but how does this small cube van generate revenue to afford this with profit? Wouldn't the alternative be air freight, and you don't need to buy the airplane? My first career was driving for a distribution center where all I dealt was drop and hook OTR freight. I know I'm missing something here but hopefully someone can shed some light on this corner of the trucking business...
I think a couple of those tool boxes could give way for some fuel tanks, I couldn't handle that crap. Have to fuel up every damn day. The hell with that
A vehicle for long journeys without a bed is a contradiction, especially for the USA where they have roads for hundreds of kilometers without finding a soul. I don't understand what it is for, who it is for !!!
The bed is behind the table and folds down. You drop the table down then pull the full sized bed down and it is supported by the benches and I believe a center support leg.
Ok! I'm a driver and I do not see a bunk to sleep on or I missed it during the video. Also, Blue Neon, what is wrong with the fuel tanks, too small or location?
This should be the standard for all trucks
Could be nice, but will be less load capacity because is too heavy this unit
We deserve this !
company driver would destroy the interior...
I do not have the desire to turn this b every day. I'm not saying I couldn't, I'm saying I wouldn't lol
I want one

You don't want a toilet and fuel tanks?
@@user-wz5ud4mn4yYour ass would have to be sideways to use this one comfortably.
I still find it incredibly cozy and well done.

Lots of rest areas provide water and a waste dump as well.

All trucks should have this set up....
I'd totally become a trucker if I had that truck
Dafq i'm doing... 3 am at night and i'm sitting here watching semi trucks... and i don't even have a driver license yet.
It’s meant to be!! Go get that cdl brother
It would be interesting to see how someone can sit on that toilet. And you need to set the bed out so that we can see that also.
The toilet seat swivels.
It should be illegal to have a Tacktor/Semi without these amennties.

Thank you for brining your truck to the show!
Cool. The payments must be $5k a month or something- how do these things make money?
Team driving non stop?
Seems so simple. Could it be?
What is the box on the back? It can haul trailers, right? Even tandems?
So what’s that small trailer back there
@@jeffreyrimmer6449 Closer to $6000 these days. This truck is about $285,000 or so.

7 months OTR, single no family, perfect truck except for maybe the added weight might make finding loads harder. Dont' know. But beautiful truck

A top bunk with a permanent dinette would be perfect for a solo otr driver. I’d hate to have to fold my bed up every day. That would get old fast.

Great finally a truck you can live in & take a 🚽💩🚿has a wet bathroom & kitchen a real long hauler.
I'd be hauling hazmat 24/7 making bank with this thing. Need an 18 speed though.

Stupendo...😅🧘♂️
I'm starting to think trucking is for me.. Im sick of factory work. I love to drive. I also do well on my own. I'd bring my cat for sure.
I wonder if the extended designs make it harder to drive the truck. I could only imagine all of that weight with the trailer added in
They do make it a bit harder to get around corners.
I'm curious what the weight on this is. Obviously the weight will effect the loads you can carry.

Nice 👍🏻
