Top Semi-Truck Accessories to Make Your Life Easier

When you’re a truck driver, you go through periods where your truck feels more like your home than your house does. It’s important not only that your semi is safe but also that it is comfortable. Just because you’re living on the road does not mean you have to go without some basic comforts. There are so many semi-truck accessories available that can add value and enjoyment to both the inside and outside of your truck.

What can I add outside?

Staying safe on the road should be your highest priority, and by incorporating a few key accessories, you can help your truck stay more visible and safer while you’re on the road.

●        Rear lights and reflector strips: If other drivers can’t see you well, that greatly increases the chance of your truck being involved in an accident. By installing new lights and reflectors on the back of your vehicle, you are more visible on the road.

●        Mud flaps: With eighteen wheels, you’re that much more likely to pick up and throw road debris into the paths of other cars, potentially causing distraction or even an accident. New mud flaps can significantly cut down on the amount of dirt or other items being thrown from your wheels into traffic.

What can I add inside?

While the safety of your rig is clearly important, it’s also important for your well-being to make sure you have access to some of the creature comforts of home even though you’re spending so much time on the road. There are some handy accessories you can acquire to help make your cab more comfortable on your breaks between driving runs.

●        TV: No need to take a break from your favorite TV shows when you’re on the road—with a TV installed in your cab, your downtime can be spent relaxing with your favorite programs. Add a DVD player, and you can add movies to the list of your viewing options. You might even be gain satellite TV access, greatly expanding the variety of what you can watch.

●        Refrigerator: Do you find yourself picking up service station food for every meal, or grabbing fast food when you pass through towns? If you had a fridge in your vehicle, think of the freedom you will have to plan your preferred menu of foods. You won’t have to worry about finding a restaurant on that isolated stretch of highway, and your cost will be far less when you can plan your meals ahead of time.

●        Microwave: This handy accessory will add value in the same way as your mini fridge. You’re not limited to choosing only between room-temperature foods you brought yourself or hot food from the gas station grill. By planning ahead with meals that can be warmed up in the microwave, you can make your on-the-road eating experiences more cost-effective and enjoyable.
