Life on the road can be a slog for long-haul truckers; they generally work for weeks at a time, sleep in a cramped area in the cab, and depend on truck stops for the restroom, meals, and showers. But for a price, some companies will make their rigs feel a little more like home.
ARI Legacy Sleepers builds spacious, feature-packed sleeper cabs complete with toilets, showers, kitchens, TVs, and other amenities to make life a bit comfier for when truckers are off the clock. Although high-end tiny homes and camper vans are a relatively new trend, ARI Legacy Sleepers has been cramming big-time amenities into pint-sized spaces since 2001.
Customers can choose from a variety of sizes and floor plans, or they can work with ARI to design a fully custom sleeper from the ground up. Depending on how much they want to spend, truckers can opt for interesting add-ons like custom tile work, full-size appliances, ceiling fans, gaming stations, and pull-out grills.
