    I took my passenger seat off and back seat.. and had a foldable mattress made at a upholstery shop so I can lay it flat on the passenger side towards the back seat. I’m 6”5 and I have plenty room that way. And When i don’t use it, I fold it in half and but it behind my seat. I hated sleeping side ways on the backseat so decided to do that.

    Does this count as a “sleeper” to the DOT? Because you have to either go “off duty” and leave the truck or go “sleeper berth” to stay in the truck as a for hire driver. But I think the DOT has certain mandates as to what is a legal “sleeper berth”. I’m a Class A 18 wheeler driver who’s considering Hot Shot and I’m trying to gather as much info as possible. Thanks.

    And what I can find says DOt regulations state dimensions have to like 75” long, 2’ wide, and 2’ high from top of mattress.
    Also says something song the lines that off duty time can’t be spent in the truck. So that keeps you from using off duty time to rest in the truck.
    Hoping you have some insight

    • @dotustm8926
      @dotustm8926 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      This is the argument of time. They make kits to cut out your rear doors and counter sink trim. Removes everything in the door so you get another 7" on each end of the bed. But nonetheless the measurement has to be from the bed to the roof, no pickup has passed the bed to roof distance DOT requires. REGARDLESS of what you may see or read on any social media. More or less DOT has gotten so fed up with citing and chasing down people to give warnings that they are starting to ignore hotshots after 10yrs of them breaking the laws because their too stretched thin. So then in return, Hotshots seem to think it somehow became legal.

    • @dotustm8926

      Best choice you can do is have 1 of many companies now taking and converting your crew into a sleeper. 10-15,000 or more, with substantial cut/body weld and rework. But then at least you pass the BASIC measurements for birth. But you still wont ever have the "CLEAR PATH to drivers seat"

      So if I were to go dually/enterprise route I’d have to down rate my trailer a little more and I’d have less weight available for freight but that’s a small price to pay in the grand scheme of life because I still owe about 23k on my truck and it has 423k miles on it right now.

    So just a little update. After watching this video I went from the backseat of my truck which was very uncomfortable and bought an inflatable rear truck seat mattress. I bought it online 45 bucks 40 bucks I don't know, it came with a 30 day return policy and on the 30th day I got a hole in it and I couldn't find it anywhere and it would not stay inflated. Which really disappointed me because I was sleeping pretty good. anyway so I thought about it for a while and I actually came up with the idea of a extra firm baby crib mattress. They make different sizes I think the one I bought is 52 in Long by 28 in wide, there's a couple sizes that's the larger one there's a smaller one for like a toddler bed. anyway so I bought a Sealy extra firm crib mattress it fits right in the back of my truck it gives me plenty of room when I move the driver seat up as go piglet described. I sleep at the same angle he showed in the video it's a little short set the width is fine I bought a couple $3 pillows and where it's short I just put him down in there and I have no problems.. I actually after sleeping on my back seat itself for 3 days but this last night at 10 pm and a local Walmart. The good news is I slept like a baby it works very well it was $59, I also bought the crib sheet to go over it and everything works just fine. So just a little update to let you know I'm trying different things as tow piglet suggested and I think I ought to be able to stick with this for a while. Feeling refreshed and driving to get loaded. Thank you tow piglet. Hope all you guys out there have a great day. KEEP IT BETWEEN THE DITCHES BOYS. Also voice to text as I drive I hope you guys get the message

    It looks more or less comfortable!
    Is it enough dark to sleep or do you cover somehow the windows?
    If its too warm do you let your engine run for ac?
    Where do you shower?

      @TowPiglet  6 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I do cover the windows, and I do run the AC all night and I only fill up at pilot & flying j, because of that I get a free shower everyday and 9 free showers as back up in case I want to take a shower twice a day

    The only bad thing i can tell is if you want to sit up on the bead your head would hit the roof, The plus side you have extra storage room ,, Just curious why don't you remove the passenger seat as well

    • @ahoneyman
      @ahoneyman 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Done it and it doesn't really open up that much space. You lose a place to put a laptop, a cooler for your food, extra water bottles... when you take out the seat. Reaching onto the floor is a real stretch and things roll around. You could rig u some storage solution but threre's no room to open drawers.

      No but I'm guessing it's 5 maybe 6 gallons so that's like 20-30 dollars
