Teaming totally depends on the individuals involved.

Slowmoe,
Are the beds suspended like hamocks or a cushion on top of sheet metal pan or matress box springs like a bed. Either way you are going to bounce and wake up. Right hand lane potholes would be a bummer for sure. How do people drive teams for years without deep sleep? Roads are in constant repair everywhere! Even in Tampa and Orlando, some bridges in FL would throw someone out of bed unless they were tied to it.
OTR drivers must be masters of cat naps at drop offs and pickups. Bet they can go to sleep real quick sitting still. Can both fit simultaneuously in the sleeper?
Finding a compatible driving partner seems as difficult as being happily married. And even worse, finding a partner you do marry. Wow, talk about being compatible.
Thanks for all the questions. This is a critical subject for newbies since this is most of them's fate in the near future. Finding ways to cope and understand seem critically important.
Please share some of your expert knowledge.
