Hi every ones
I want to know if you use a generator in a truckstop and Do you let the generator in your truckbed.

My issue is because I have a cover on my truckbed and have to buy a generator but it have to fit in the truck bed.

So overall what are your Tips orsuggestions ??

Thank you

Excuse me i'm novice in this field. I never had truck before.


🙂 Hi, I installed four "D" rings to my truck bed to secure / lock my generator down. I found a conduit connector with set screws and a conduit elbow to turn my exhaust up-ward. I also used exhaust wrap material on it. I roll up my bed cover about two feet to run my generator.

We use the onboard generator at truck stops, and it works well during hot nights. Typically though, we try to run the AC on shore power, or catch a cool breeze through the windows.

If truckers are idling their rigs they’ll be louder than most RV generators. Lock it down and it may be there in the morning. Is the “truckbed” on your toad? You show a C in your signature.
