We are progressing towards our new truck and spent several hours at Bolt looking at sleepers being built, the room in the sleepers, and what is possible in our next sleeper.
Over the years we have said no to a shower in the sleeper. The showers use to much water, they are hard to maintain, too many are used as a coat closet, the truck stops have pretty nice showers, and with the addition of the truck stop apps, we do not have to mill around waiting for our shower number to be announced on the intercom.
We have talked to drivers who have not used a truck stop shower since they got the one in their truck and others that have never used the shower. One thing I have noticed is that owners of the truck that buy a sleeper with a shower or those that add a shower seem to use it more than drivers for a fleet owner. It would be interesting to do a survey on this subject.
