    Depends, is the trailer moving, is it attached to a truck and where is it parked? Maybe?

    Can't imagine the heat that trailer is putting out from sitting in the sun. Not to mention the road fumes. Just because you can do a thing does not mean you should do a thing. Bully for him but I'll pass (on the left even).

    Probably cooler under there than out in the West Texas sun. Looks like a nice cross breeze...I'm in/under.

    This is actually quite common in Central and South America. There are no rest stops in the jungle.

    I think its ingenious as long as the truck stays stationary. Gets your out of the heat with solid cover and no worries of widowmakers.

    I have seen this a couple times at truck stops with those that don't have a sleeper. Although I hope that they hang there after it has some time too cool down under there....if not man what a sauna that must be?????

    Pretty cool. The fella has some stones. Its breezy like your flying in the comfort of a hammock. Relax and nap out those freeway miles.

    Until the trucker mows over Bambi and you have a memorable close encounter.
