Haha! That's pretty funny. You know you men like having someone to cook and keep the truck clean and nice. The DOT once told me to tell my husband he was the luckiest man cause we had the best smelling truck he had ever smelled when he opened the door. I'm sure that helped my inspection along nicely:)

Jeff is very organized and neat. Likes the van clean and everything where it belongs. I clean things for a hobby. It's a win-win, and I am mindful of the van's "mancave" status. If I can't accept lack of wall to wall carpet, cascade window valances, pillow top mattress and Snuggle softened bath towels then I need to stay home. I enjoy the company of Jeff and the adventure; it's worth playing by mancave rules.

Man cave is not so much a place as it is the experience of being alone and undisturbed as you lose yourself in a project or activity. Diane was in the truck when the original post came to mind. I was outside, changing filters and replacing tail lights.

My office is really a man cave. I have a corner office with no windows. I love it too.

So everybody leaves their underwear lying around? :confused:

Not in this truck. Security inspections and truck tour requests are frequent enough to prompt ongoing good housekeeping habits. Even without that incentive, the large sleeper provides plenty of space to store dirty laundry and keep the truck interior pleasant.

We put flat screens TV's in all of out trucks to make them feel like a man/woman cave for Sunday football.

Your welcome to stop by too. As a matter of fact any Panther, Load1, or Landstar trucks can stop by anytime if they need to fax or copy anything. There is also a small truck stop across street from our office that has overnight parking. Down the road from our shop is a great place to eat and it has the best wings, it's called lager heads. Lagerhead's Smokehouse | Abbeyville, OH here is the link. It has great food.

Just as important it is to have a quality person behind the wheel in the front , equal importance should be applied to the qualities of the amenities in the back. Thusly defines the cave

Don't be too sure of that...One of the biggest fringe benefits of trucking(solo, anyway) is the much needed break from the women back at home.
