- Sleeping in a truck, Eating in a truck.
Basically my whole routine and what I do to keep myself busy. Staying away in my truck showing you around the cab.
If you are interested in a work life in the truck industry and want to see life away from home.

About 30 years ago I lived in a 143 for one year. Loved it. Simple living. Laundry in Charlton on my way to Dover. Shower on the ferry. Small camping gas stove. Kettle and small saucepan. Used these if I was stranded somewhere remote waiting for a return load. After a few months with the ' normal' people I moved back in for another 15 months. I can recommend it.
You are hardy, I love a 143 and the bed down the back but that’s a shift to live in, proper driver 🤙🏻
Looks proper comfy, well thought out and the routine must always help. Great vid 👍
Brilliant video very informative and shows everybody how truck drivers live mega keep them coming

Hopefully big things coming for her soon
New to the channel as of yesterday, watching from South Africa.
Really enjoy your thoughts and tips, keep them coming!
Cool video sandy you keep her serious clean im sure its not always possible espically with timber or flat bed work but always nice to spend a bit of time haveing pride sitting in every time to a clean cab.
Nice one sandy … I used to do the double duvet as well when I was tramping … but now I do just two nights a week so single cover … drive safe mate

Another good vlog Sandy. Saw you today at Arrochar 😎
Im a canadian truck driver and its super interesting to see all. The differences but many similarities between countries. When I started driving I had only a 52inch bunk so pretty similar in size to your cab and would spend 2 to 3 weeks out on the road. Now my cab is probably twice that size with only 3 to 5 night a week away from home. I also makes me laugh the differences in size and length of trucks and trailers, I can't imagine my 80ft truck and float trailer fitting on those roads, I barely fit on some if the roads In our older towns and cities.
Going back a few years (maybe more than a few) I remember a few trampers that slept in there cabs and had ropes / chains & dwangs still in the passenger foot well changed days.
Fair play Looks cosy. 🤙
Great way of explaining the nights away Sandy , i have 5 nights out s week & this is in a 7,1/2 T iveco , lucky for me it is a high cab twin sleeper , have a great onward trip 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Oooo! That's rough! 7.5 is bad enough without trying to get 8 hours in it as well. You uk only or accross Europe?
@@stuartcraigon2003 I only do uk now , however I did 35 yr doing uk , European & Middle East in a 7,1/2 T many yr in a day cab b4 sleepers came along , last truck I had on Europeans was a DAF LF45 Euro cab twin sleeper , no microwave or fridge freezer for me , mine is a kettle & a fridge on the passenger seat , would not change it for the world
Well done! Hope it works out for you!
Heinz tomato soup, definitely raking in the money!
You bet me to that one! 👍
I drive a scania r490 virtually the same inside love a night out every now n then find some right good places to wake up at 👍🏼

hi dude love the videos

Hi Sandy, love the vid. Just wondering whats the purpose of the diary at the start of the video, would you recommend all truckers to write down mileage, defects etc?
Seems like a good idea when you're young and daft. The thrill wears off quick
Oh but he’s got a scania mate that’s all that matters plus his £12 per hour for doing it🤦♂️
For the awful money you get paid I imagine it wears off fasssssst
@@recall2880 it’s a terrible job with terrible money. Unless you get a decent job. I’m on 50k 4 days a week 4 days off. Decent. Home every day.
Bro literally spoke doctor's handwriting
living in a truck is not a problem once u sort out the routine.i use to park nr leisure centres for a shower swim and sauna these days u have tv and microwaves etc and much better trucks
I couldn't tell on the video, but you do know that if you slide both seats forward you can pull the bed out a few more inches making it wider ?
Mines broken 😂
Mate you ever think of making video about getting your operator licence and all that is involved in that? Could be very interesting video! Cheers
Your Scania is mint 👌 first thing I’d do if I win the lottery is buy a Scania and become an owner op 🤞
Don’t wait to win the lottery bro just fined away
That looks like next to Caledonian Paper 👀
What was in the Tekno box
Really hoping thats a SJM model in the Tekno box.
Mine were made by WSI
🤙🏼
Can we see your model collection
Don't you pull the bunk out?? Feel cramped when don't pull mine out
Can’t find your stuff on autoperfekt :( want the watermelon stuff 😂
You though of getting a different steering wheel ?
Yes when I do the dash
I remember when we called them lorries but hay ho lets all talk American not
I find myself goijg in to work on a sunday night just to sleep in my truck i sleep better im my wagon than i do in my bed at home.
Drivers that don't like the idea of sleeping in the truck are probably mankie bar stewards and treat the truck like crap so they don't want to sleep in the dirty cab! 😂
I wouldn't agree.i spent 18years driveing day cabs to sleeping cabs never liked sleeping out liked to get home and cook my own dinner and come excercise but always maintained a spotless clean cab for if I had to sleep out and also a clean cab felt cosier and warmer
Why do grown adults wear childrens baseball caps
Cab ratting isn’t for everyone, did it for over 25 years in general haulage then international.
The services are shit for drivers over , much better in Europe!
