Cab Size Does Matter: The Benefits of Adding a Bed to Your Day Cab

It’s an unfortunate reality that day cabs are not a one-size-fits-all solution to the diverse needs of professional truck drivers. Squeezing into a tight space for hours a day for days on end will break even the most seasoned operators, leading to higher turnover rates for fleet operators and unaffordable downtime for independent operators. And let’s face it, investing in a new rig isn’t always cost-appropriate. 

However, a cramped day cab is no reason to toss out the whole truck. Adding a DC-Max cab extension is an easy and economical solution to improving driver well-being by providing those few inches that make a big difference. 

What are Day Cab Bed Extensions?

Anyone who has spent any time behind the wheel of a big rig will tell you, “Cab size does matter.” Designed to seamlessly integrate onto existing truck cabs without using up valuable frame space, day cab bed extensions provide the coveted space craved by long-haul truckers. Not only do they provide a comfortable place to rest between runs, but they also provide ample space to properly adjust the seats for optimal comfort across long-distance routes.

Long-Hauls Just Got Easier

Fleet owners and independent operators alike can benefit from investing in day cab bed extensions, especially when dipping into the long-haul game for the first time. 

Enhanced Driver Well-Being

Driving trucks for a living can take its toll on a person, especially when cramped inside a cab that feels like it was designed for a horse jockey. Add being away from home for extended periods and the combination of physical and mental discomfort can bring everything to a screeching halt. 

Increased Flexibility

Day cab extensions are a great way to expand your logistical capabilities without investing in a larger fleet or dipping into the profits for pricey hotels. By incorporating a bed extension, you can enjoy the increased flexibility to pick up longer-haul loads.

Improved Safety

Personal belongings and gear have to go somewhere and when stored in cramped cabs these seemingly innocent items can quickly become dangerous distractions. Cab extensions provide additional dedicated storage space to safely secure boots, lunch boxes, and other belongings.
