    Is there space in the back of a truck for a bed?

    Sleep? Trucks are for for driving. HOS is for wussies. Can't be scared of the man all your life - wake up and drive, drive, drive.

    (P.S. No, this is not how I would operate myself - but we ain't talkin' 'bout me.)

    I slept very well in the back of the truck back when I drove!

    There is a bed built into the thing. Not always the most comfortable thing, but it's there.
