I have a buddy who invented and is marketing a portable toilet mainly for outdoors activities like hunting, fishing and camping. I mentioned to him that it might be good for truckers too. So I thought I would ask out here for feedback.
To describe it. Its made of heavy cardboard and folds flat for storage. Weighs 2lbs and basically it has a bag that connects under it and wet wipes Its been tested to hold at least 400lbs. The price will be around 20 bucks. Y'all think that would be something truckers would want? It looks like its going to be carried at most walmarts, and outdoor shops. Im trying to get feedback for him so he can know if he should hit the truck stops and get them to carry it. This is a picture of it holding at least 400 lbs....no thats not me sitting on it I will be happy to post the website for this product when he gets it up. However so you know this isnt spam, I get nothing if you buy it from the website. [/url]

Who knows...that is why Im asking. I do know from my buddy that Prime inc just bought 100s of these from him. So Im guessing their might be a little market for these in the trucking industry. He really created this for hunters and outdoorsmen. Personally, Im thinking of buying about 500 of them and taking them to an outdoor expo.

I think it is a good idea. While I prefer using the restroom, there are those times when it is inconvienent or impossible. I always have my 5 gallon bucket and trashbags handy. I would like to try one of these and even have a couple on hand. Please, do post the website.

Thought about making one like we had in the army. Take a metal folding chair and put a toilet seat on it,mark it ,then cut out the hole with a torch and mount the seat. Folds up when done and it has a back on it for comfort. :
