WHAT KIND OF SATISFACTION DID YOU GET BY NOT PUTTING ANY HUMAN VOICE IN THIS VIDEO. ?
@@davecruzen9352 HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA ,
GOOD ONE
The ability to have a shower, Toilet, washing machine, kitchen ect... while on the road is the most under rated luxury ever.
And where is the bed?
Do not say now that you have to convert the seating area to a bed.... that is an absolute nogo in this day and age.... and at this price certainly not!
@@_Briegel It's really hard to have room for everything including luxuries but I feel like a bunk bed above the kitchen would be good
@@RBFR01 A bunk bed is just as much of an imposition. For the price I expect at least a king size bed above the seating area, which I can lower if necessary, but leaves the seating area usable to the extent that you can still sit under it and which also has a Nivelier facility, so that you can align the lying surface carriagewise, if the truck is at an angle. When not needed, I can drive the bed completely under the ceiling and have there then also the ceiling light or a corresponding ambient lighting under the bed, so that the underside of the raised bed acts like a normal living room ceiling.
This is at least in Europe even in small campers of the middle price class standard!
@@RBFR01 That Busch has clearly never been inside a truck in his life! There's just not enough room for a king size bed to be lowered down from the ceiling! And if he wants a king size bed to be lowered down from the ceiling, then he can hire a carpenter to make one in his bedroom, because that's the only place something like that can be done at the moment! It's IMPOSSIBLE to fit a king sized bed inside a truck, that gets lowered down from the ceiling! There's just not enough room! 🤦♂️
@Charles Morse And where and how can I, with the bed made usable, still use the sitting area at the same time?
I also have to lower the table beforehand, which means that I have to clear it completely.
That's just awkward and takes too long. In addition, a passenger can then no longer use the seating area, for example, still undisturbed to read or eat something.
All this could be completely bypassed with a bed attached under the ceiling, which I can lower. And the technical effort for this would not even be greater than for the folding variant in the truck.
And what does that have to do with my job and your assumption that it's a lousy job?
I wish every trucker should have a cab like this. They deserve it because it's work that's needed, but it's work most of us don't want to do. They should all be able to drive in comfort as much as possible.
After 6 years if driving (im in my early 30s) I realized living in comfortable truck makes a difference in your mental health
I wish that some motels and hotels at airports would be so modern.
if every trucker had a cab like this, they wouldn't be able to transport loads as large as they do. roads have limits on weight of vehicles, so the more space in the cabin, the less cargo that can be transported

@@leonv7716 the worker is worth it
My Dad drove for Preston Trucking Company 38 years I wish he were alive to see this rig.
God bless him
That’s nicer than most RV’s, plus you’re making money while driving it. I would absolutely love being a trucker, but can’t pass the DOT exam due to MS. But, thank you to every trucker! From working with my husband, who used to manage logistics accounts, I know y’all work long hours, are often away from your families for weeks at a time, and also know it can be a thankless job, especially dealing with passenger cars and dispatchers. Y’all are my heroes!
what is a ms?
@@Amiir Multiple Sclerosis is an autoimmune disease that attacks the brain. Because it causes fatigue, pain, balance problems, weakness, etc., the DOT won’t allow people, like myself, attain a CDL license.
Yea what’s MS?
Ms is multiple sclerosis. If I am not mistaken
@@AmiirIt's def multiple sclerosis. You're immune system basically eats at your nerve coverings. Interrupts the communication between your nerves and your brain.
My favorite part was when the same thing was filmed 5 times
Exactly what the heck
For real 6 minutes of absolutely zero explanations of anything and didn't even show case the bed 😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The truck you mean?
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
So glad they made a 6+ min video not showing the cabinets' interior or even a friggin' BED. WTF!
@@mzahra1 I know that. I said I wanted to SEE it, not to know where it's hidden.
@Hello Hugo how are you doing
Seriously 😑 I needed to see what the bed would have looked like
360k and the toilets inside the shower 🤣
Truckers do meth, don't ever sleep.
I don't understand why this cab length isn't a stock option for more manufactures. Excellent OEM quality build. Just an eye-watering price.
Eye watering, omg lmao 🤣
1970 federal regulation of max length
It’ll take so much longer to turn a profit, especially with how the trucking industry is now!
You don't want a long cab like that. DOT wise especially. Not to mention some places are so ridiculous to back in that extra length really fucks you....
@@cuda861 yeah, right, and also, you don’t want to be a truck driver either, kids
The garbage can stuffed with flowers right outside the sleeper door offers such a great contrast to a beautiful truck. Without it I was hesitant to buy it. Now I'm headed to the dealer to pick one up.
We can have nice things, and it's ok. But wow at how caught up and cynical...must be tough.
I think we all agree: go back and do a part 2 showing the bed!
table goes down.... bed open from wall.. pretty simple.
😆

@@drutang I didnt know that , Part 2 please

This is what I’m talking about. I don’t drive trucks, but my Dad did for 41 years and all with the same Company.
I’d buy this in a second so my brother and I could drive it and even for a bit know what my Dad did.
Love and miss you everyday Dad.

God bless all our truck drivers and their families!!!!
Huh? Good bless all the internet workers that keep my internet running.
This is how a truck should be built 😉
Driving 10hrs and 20minutes knowing you have this waiting for you when you back into LOVES, PILOT, REST AREA, TA or etc., must be the best feeling in the world. I love trucking🤑😁
I hope the bed is somewhere out there too🤣
@@mrDee1824 I think it was a Murphy bed that you pull down in the little dining area, but I could be wrong.
With today's drivers. I would keep this at mom and pops maybe rest areas.
@TRUTH _ no its 11. Unless in Alaska then it's 16. No idea why they wrote 10hr 20min.
@TRUTH _ I went with the 600 mile rule because traffic can slow you down especially in major cities.
2+ million miles before i got off the road. Drove all kinds of tractors but the Volvos were the most comfortable trucks i had ever been in. Never had a shower or bathroom though. Maybe another million miles in that one though. Gorgeous!!
A shower and a shitter such a mess lol
@@johnsteltzner8932 Specially if you do both things at the same time... 💩🧻🚽🧼🧽🚿 🤣
It's like a Winnebago that tows stuff. What is NOT to like??
@@thewildbruce5612 good time efficiently though
@@JasonFlorida Yeah. 🤣
I don't have $300,000+ yet but I would but this beautiful unit in a heartbeat
This would be perfect for team drivers!
What nobody who builds trucks seems to understand is that we need room with function not gimmicks and gadgets, everything that they put in the trucks will loosen up in time and start to rattle, makes it hard to sleep, need less stuff and better general functional items, example would be a better mount for a microwave versus adding something new like a stove, just my 2 cents after 26 years trucking
that bathroom and shower adds a lot to the cost of the truck on the other hand the value you get for it is quite questionable...
My first thought was the TV on the top that folds down, seems like after a while that would loosen up and rattling break off. I have 3000 miles on my new truck and I’m already starting to hear some rattles
I had the same thought when I saw that TV hanging there...this would be good maybe for Nascar or something similar...but try that on the cross bronx weekly
The mount for the television and microwave are near perfect in the 2017 730 I drive and live in 11 of 14 nights every two weeks.
About Franks comment regarding Nascar, I can totally picture this truck at a pit area or at a rock concert, it's looks great for the "high end" user. But at least in this video they have it hooked to a box trailer so I was assuming they intend it to be used over the road like maybe the stretched trucks furniture haulers use. It could be good for that but no way to get it into most shipping docks
This is literally the only way I could convince my wife to come over the road with me and she would still find something to complain about.
How is it being a truck driver? I try to be good to yall when I'm driving I feel like ppl dont respect yall
@@AgeraXXX There are a lot worse jobs out there that pay a lot less and the hours or days are long. Not a lot of time for family or friends. Big plus for me is not having a boss or coworkers breathing down my neck.
Lol u married her 💀
Maybe she would find something to bitch about because she not home with her boy/girl friends
No bed, Where will you bring the hookers??
May God bless you all who's ever reading this and hope you all have a blessed rest of your day
This is awesome, and would be a dream, but I'm not sure I'd like giving up the turning radius. A lot of docks are hard enough getting into. Some would be impossible with this.
If you can back up with Full Sleeper Truck/Trailer I am sure you can back up with Extended Sleeper Straight Truck like this.
Let alone finding parking 😩
A bus
This is to long what about the older docks. They would have to pay another driver to put it on the door for them
@@shawnwea9395 ....that's what the under-slung tailgate is for. Back-up to about 4 ft (or the max. extended length of the folded tailgate, whichever is more) from the dock, activate the tail-gate and raise it to box-floor level flat out....measure the number of "toe-to-heel" steps from the extremity of that tailgate edge to the building's dock-edge...say for the sake of argument, 13 such "toe-to-heel steps"...now walk to the driver's door, take the front-corner of your top step as reference mark, and count the same number of "toe-to-heel steps" toward the back, and at the13th toe, place a pen (or lighter, or ruler) on the ground. Now hop in the cab, open the window, place the vehicle in reverse, release the parking brake, and fixate your eyes out the window down to the front-corner top-step reference mark and begin backing-up slowly....do not look in the mirror...do not look any where else but that front-corner top step reference mark. When it is level with your pen (or lighter , or ruler), STOP, pull the yellow button on the dash, and place the shifter in neutral.
Now walk back to the dock....everyone standing there will be in awe how you managed to get the tailgate to within 1 inch of the dock-edge without any one guiding you. LOL....remember, your trainer, when he said "use a guide to your advantage?"....they didn't say it was going to be someone waving a hand...your own brain, foot & a pen will work wonders...every time!.
When the wife finally convinced her husband to retire and buy an RV so they could travel, he came home with this.
E,Fortune. The box on the back end up being his dog house though.
And, you'll have PLENTY of food too...if the trailer has any 😉😉
Smart move. Most RVs are money pits. This one will pay for its self time over. 🤠👍
😂😂😂 Awesome!!!
Something I would do 😎👍

My Dad, God rest his soul, would have LOVED this.
Well, if your LIFE is that of a truck driver, if you are doing long-haul over days and weeks, comfort is the most important thing, hands down. That and safety. This setup gives you options!

Thats nice and all but my main concern would be does it have a bed and is it comfortable? Because no matter how fancy the cab is its pointless if you can't get a good nights sleep
Right, where’s the damn bed with a real mattress
@@davidburke75116 The mattresses in those customs are as nice( or nicer) than your bed at home.
@@davidburke75116 it's a folded up murphy bed behind the table, its just not set up. You can see it buttoned up to the back wall.
The foldout bed is right behind the table
@@astrahcat1212 I wish they would have showed, I waited and waited, definitely a great truck, I lost my brother 5 years ago in a rig accident, he would have gone bonkers over that rig. He was always grilling out in parking lots because he hated trucker diner food.
Would have been cool to see the "sleeper" conversion
Looks like the back had a hinge to lower a bed in the table area?
@@PanzerBuyer Thats what i was thinking, like a murphys bed
Yes the table collapses down, lays flat level with the seats, then the bed folds down.
Most important of this was missed how does someone sleep ?
I kept waiting for it..
Best and most useful vehicle I've seen and it's very practical too.
I am def not a trucker , but I would love to stay in this and travel.
I'm guessing they drop the table to form a bed, but the great thing about video is it can eliminate guesswork...
Lolz
I'm pretty sure the bed is folded up on the back wall. Drop the table and then fold down the bed, you can see the hinges on the bottom corners.
Murphy bed
Its the only thing I don't like about them, I wish they used a slumberjack like system to drop the bunk straight down.
This is the true meaning of Living on the road!
Or to look at it another way, working from home!
That sleeper has everything but a place to sleep
Just a dream.I'm just delighted with American trucks, it's a dream job and such a truck is incredible. If I ever get a green card and regardless of the market situation, I will learn to drive a truck and dream of buying such a truck.
I feel like other truckers would mock the guy that pulls into the rest area with this luxury rig, but secreply envy him tremendously.
Yep.
Nope. It would be a pain to park this in truck stops
No envy here. I love my pete but i can afford to stay home with my wife and kids. At that price that truck only parks long enough to get fuel and supplies.
@@akilghosh we generally don't park at truck stops. Only go to scale, fuel, buy anti-gel/ bug wash, etc and roll on. With a full kitchen, toilet and shower on board, there's no reason to linger at a piss stained truck stop.
@@donmunro144 my wife team drives so there's no rent/ house payment, utilities, property tax, etc. 168" sleeper with a 30amp hook up means we can drop the step deck and tie up at any camp site in north America or pull a 34 coastal or riverside at a scenic spot of our choosing. Completely off the grid.

Awsome. I just love these self contained cabs.
Beautiful truck. One criticism would be the doors on the rear of the box body. Anyone who has experienced these will tell you they can be difficult to work with especially in high winds or tight delivery bays. A better option is the wide slat up and over door..

Respect to y’all Truck Drivers! The way y’all get cut off on the roads is nuts! I couldn’t handle the stress. 👍🏼
Actually the stress could come more from time pressures--having to meet deadlines. MY stress was also having to pick up from places I've never been to before, and trying sometimes to find them, using old Thomas Guide maps with torn out pages; or food & coffee stains/ writing on them from other drivers, under time considerations; and finding out the place of business was not "tractor/trailer friendly" even with a cab-over tractor and a 53' trailer because it might not have had a loading dock--or the loading dock was blocked with cars, and I had to wait while the owners were tracked down and they moved them, and the person responsible for the paperwork often was busy playing solitare on the computer and I was interrupting his or her game, and how DARE I bother THEM when I may have to have that freight that I'm picking up from them at SFO airport at say 7:00 pm.....And I'm still in SAN JOSE at 5:15pm, and there are accidents with injuries reported on both the 101 and 280 freeways, and yet I have perhaps even more pickups to make at similar places, and a dispatcher wondering what is taking me so long to pick up perhaps just ONE crate that may weigh up to 500lbs without a decent FORKLIFT to load the thing** and finally I'm on the road in bumper-to-bumper traffic with a truck that is NOT an automatic that has little or no air conditioning in heat that is approaching 85+ degrees only to get just north of SFO to start freezing my ass off in fog.
The good news? I was just a LOCAL driver and did not have to worry about filling out log-books, and I rarely got cut off. (One day, after not having an adequate enough supply of Red-Bull energy drink, I was going at a nice clip on northbound 280 towards San Francisco, but discovered too late around a bend that traffic ahead of me had backed up, and came to a complete standstill, prompting me to hit the airbrakes a little too hard, causing the trailer to jackknife, but not before it had cut off a rapidly approaching BMW on my left side. Fortuneately no one was hurt or killed and the driver just gave me a one finger salute.😬😂 But I often marvelled at rushing "soccer moms" trying to make a right turn inside of me while I was making a right turn too.😂😂😂😂😂
**Prompting the finding and recruitment of strapping but not so willing young men such as myself to load such a beast BY HAND onto the back of the trailer, only to discover that On THIS pickup I didn't bring a PALLET JACK with me, and so 3 or 4 guys help load THEIR pallet jack that doesn't work properly and has lots of warehouse crud blocking the proper rolling of its wheels.😂😂😂
I have a hunch more than one truck driver prior to GPS devices can relate to the type of STRESS I describe so vividly here
I have no respect for truckers. They are the worst most arrogant drivers on the road.

Great to see something that could ease the pain of being a truck driver.
For a very small few well off owner operators. There isn’t a company in existence that would invest the money in this truck and accept the reduction of freight that can be hauled because of the weight of the tractor.

Body looks funny with so much overhang lot of tail swing. What is the turn radius
Nice. This is the closest I've seen to 'The Gypsy's' Truck from the old graphic novel where a new ice age forms and air travel as well as ship travel is greatly curtailed. And it addresses the number one issue for OTR truckers, food cost. Having to eat at restaurants for every meal eats up much of your wage. Being able to cook most of your meals in your truck is a great cost savings.
Don’t forget the convenience of having your very own toilet and shower.
A microwave isn’t much of a kitchen.

A truck and RV all in one.... Bring the family along. Nice, really nice.
Very beautiful and very wonderful creativity and brilliance
Much better than my actual condo ...
Amazing!!! What a step up from the original sleeper bunks behind the seats. Which were considered advanced for their time. Loved this video.
Lol no they weren't and this is just a refined better looking version of the long existing extended sleeper cab. People have been doing that with the old school looking macks and peterbilts for a long time. But it didn't look good with a bulky box shape stretching off the back. History channel even had a documentary series showing them. One lady had a shower and fake fireplace in hers.
This limits your work ability
@BA Pike why stop there? Compare it to the horse and carriage
Except you cannot haul a trailer... so this is nothing but an RV that looks like a truck
@@punchingcrow5486 Not really.Most of the people driving these rigs are not hauling general freight.They are hauling specialized freight.Mostly light weight,and high paying freight.
Adds a whole new meaning to being able to work from home
I'd totally become a trucker if I had one of those
It seems cool and nice, just make sure while getting a fuel card, you get a water card too, and what happens to the poop and the pee at the end????
At the beginning it looked like it was hooked up to a trailer but the they show the hole rig and it actually has a small box sitting on the back of it. It took me a moment to realize this
Yup. No red button for trailer brakes or trolly valve. It’s just a glorified camper.
Such a beautiful truck. BUT!! I absolutely cannot believe the builder went that far and then left out nice chrome lugnut covers for the aluminum wheels! Don’t forget. The shoes make the outfit!!
Weird that a trucker-dude would say that.
What's the overall length and is that box 20 foot? I wonder what the payload capacity is
What a beautiful machine.
