My wife and I had the same problem. Neither of us could sleep well with the truck moving. We both had to be thoroughly fatigued in order to sleep. But, we did find a company that allowed us to run
SUPER SINGLE So that we could each run about 8 hrs a day and then both sleep for 8 hours. We still could do spurts as full team, like the 4,000 miles from Portland, OR to fifty miles north of Miami in 2 1/2 days, but we were generally able to pace ourselves and get our rest. We were still able to outrun a single driver. That was done with J & R Schugel, in the flatbed division which the company considers to be solo. They told us teams didn't work well in flatbed, but sure seemed to enjoy our ability.
