You know sheepdog 44, that idea somehow eluded my mind, what with all the intricate details of the new truck, and all of those empty beer bottles and spider webs in there.
But I absolutely love your idea. And some truck stops are already electrified, providing the service of shore power and heat, A/C, internet directly into drivers cabs for a fee.
