    Default Toilets on trucks

    What would it cost to spec a truck with a toilet. Doesn't matter what make. Just trying to see what kind of pricing I'm looking at.

    I KNOW I can do that way. But want to seriously look at purchasing a truck and want to see how much different.

    I have never heard of a standard truck sleeper being equipped with a toilet from the factory.

    You can probably have most any sleeper retrofitted for about $10,000 and up to include anything you want that will fit in the sleeper.
    Finding the right trucking company is like finding the right person to marry. I really comes down to finding one whose BS you can put up with and who can put up wih yours.

    I had to reply to this one. Love the priceless comment that was awesome. I do have to ask, does anybody have one of these?

    I have talked to drivers who say they are great, but the cleaning is a real mess. I would think that doing the #1 and the #2 would not be to great in the cab of your truck. I mean what happens when it splatters when ur peeing!! GROSS.

    Anyone other replies? Seems to be some sanitary issues with it.

    Stopped at the lovely Pilot there at Exit 65(?) on I-35 north of Laredo (not the one at exit 13), and there was literally crap all over the floor floating in a lake of urine in the men's room and leaking outside into the hallway in front of the men's room and enough illegals in there to re-film "The Alamo." Say what you will, I lost my qualms about performing calls of nature in a trash bag and/or empty milk jug in the privacy of my own truck real quick.

    Sorry, Steve-O, you got that wrong.

    *****ting 6 inches from where you sleep, with no means of disposal and no means of washing up without walking in the rain that you were trying to avoid.....priceless

    Are people getting that lazy that they are reverting to crapping inm their trucks? If you want a truck with the toilet you're going to have to:

    <Cue JRoqueman> GET A BIG BUNK!!! Aside from the tax benefits, you can have a truck 20' longer than necessary, AND have your ****ter, kitchen and shower all in one! Cook, eat, poop, wash up afterwards!!</JRoqueman>

    No, seriously...walk in the rain....it's things like this that keep bedbugger's slimmer and trimmer than dock bumpers.
    Save a drum......bang a trucker!

    Get an actual portable chemical toilet. Most have a fresh water tank tha flushes and a seal over the dump tank. The chemicals break down the poopie and toilet paper into a pourable goo.
    You can take the driver out of the truck but you cant take the truck out of the driver.

    I had to use my hard hat one time, it only cost $6.99 to get a new one. It was just one of those moments and it was not raining.

    There are portable toilets out there that offer bags with chemicals in them that solidify urine and neutralize odor of the other. These portable toilets can fold away also.
    If you think you can or you think you can't, either way you are right!

    Doesn't matter where you have been, it's where you are going in life that counts!

    I have one. The only problem is the height and size.

    I used a regular "port-a-potty" but it was hard to get out of the truck and dump.

    Do you realize the amount of fecal bacteria that is escaping from these "makeshift bathrooms"? Especially since it has no walls surrounding it.

    I sure hope a person who owns this thing doesn't eat in their truck.

    We live in a civilized society. We should live like civilized creatures. And a civilized creature doesn't ***** 6 inches from his bed.

    Disgusting, I tell you.

    Considering the filth you encounter on a daily basis using a public toilet, the portable in your sleeper isn't such a bad thing.

    Public toilet = sink to wash your hands

    Sleeper port-o-john = wiping fecal bacteria all over everything.


    I'll keep using the public toilet until I "consider" a big bunk. :wink:

    Hand sanitizer takes care of that.
