I have a 99 freight shaker, and a 97 internationl. where can i find this type of item. need to have it to help out with record keeping while on the road. does these type of stand comes with a fan cooling for the lap top? since I have a birthday coming up might as well get treated good!!

    My laptop stand is the passenger seat. Kinda wish I had a better solution but all the ones I've seen either prevent you from getting into the bunk or the sit way up high and block the view of the right front corner. Not too keen on drilling holes in the floor either.

    Thought that was a great idea when you first posted it....

    Simple and no chance of fire.

    Whatzup I built my own from the hardware store and the music store after seeing the rediculus prices they charge on line or in truck stops. Just figure out what you need in angles and lengths and get that at the hardware store in 1/2 pipe (can alway return or exchange) get two "Feet" like you would use to fix down a railing to a patio. Go to the music store and get the top to a music stand, either plastic or expanded metal and vola you have a laptop stand. Mine angles out 45 degrees from being bolted to the base of the passenger seat comes up about 2 1/2 feet then angles so the top is tilted towards me. I don't need a fan because there is an AC outlet right there but could mount one that plugs into lighter. To get a "professional" finish I got some 3/4 ribbed plastic pipe and slipped it over before putting on the top but could also spray paint it to match the interior About $25 to $30
