Trying out the cooking setup in my new truck. And one dollar strawberries for dessert!

Lots.of places like that I park throughout Montana for my lunch. Also a good time to whip out the Canon camera and take landscape pics.
Temporary_Big8747@reddit
Gorgeous view!!
seanfmcgee@reddit
Do you have a bunch of old fuds in Europe who bitch about the camera mirrors?
SuperChaos002@reddit
That's just an appetizer for Americans.
Prestigious_Ad280@reddit
What make and model of truck is this? I've never seen a table like that before. I like it
Laffenor@reddit (OP)
It's a DAF XG+. The largest and, in my entirely unbiased opinion, best cabin in Europe.

So you've got a whole fold-out dinner tray in the front seat of your truck, and I'm sitting here in my Pete with sunvisors that do everything except block sun.
The_Growl@reddit
You surely must have fold out tables on the passenger side, or at least in that studio apartment you guys are carrying at the back of your tractors.
scottiethegoonie@reddit
If you ever get a chance to drive an American Truck you'd be surprised just how little thought is put into simple, efficient, ergonomic features (like your fold out table on a drivers or passengers seat) given just how much extra space we have with a sleeper.
Casperuis495@reddit
Yeah, I meant DAF. My bad.
Casperuis495@reddit
Looks like the scanias that came over
Laffenor@reddit (OP)
The Scanias don't have this table, actually. They have a smaller one on the passenger side.

That view is too pretty to be anywhere in the states. Closest I can think of is Colorado
scottiethegoonie@reddit
You can get this shot in Oregon if you stop in the middle of the freeway.
PharthSharth@reddit
Thats an insane statement
Robjla@reddit
Are you kidding I can find that view in West Virginia
haydukelives56@reddit
i was maybe thinking coeur d’alene
Laffenor@reddit (OP)
You're right. It's not actually one dollar strawberries, it's 10 NOK strawberries.
Elderado12443@reddit
Coeur d’Alene?
Laffenor@reddit (OP)
Årdal
Elderado12443@reddit
Norway!
Laffenor@reddit (OP)
Coeur d’Alene does look very similar to my view though!
Elderado12443@reddit
That is cool as shit my stepdad was Norwegian. We always wanted to get there, but never did enjoy your break.
Laffenor@reddit (OP)
It's not too late, Norway is still here!
Elderado12443@reddit
But he’s not. 😢
Lavasioux@reddit
Saw a ladies hat and thought this was pareidolia.
CashWideCock@reddit
I know places like that in Oregon.
Dangerous-Moods@reddit
Happy cake day driver
Dangerous-Moods@reddit
Why is the dash so cool looking? Can we see the outside of the truck please?
Socketz11@reddit
I thought the burger was a hat at first with the plate. That table in the dash is very cool, I hate eating on my bed where my tray is located.
Washedhockeyguy@reddit
People hate their truck driving jobs but constantly spend all their downtime in dirty, crowded truck stops eating shitty, overpriced fast food. This is great to see other people enjoying this job and making the most out of it. That looks like great food with a great view
Cardinal_350@reddit
If you've got time to cook meals in scenic areas you're either not working hard enough or not going home enough.
Laffenor@reddit (OP)
Or you work in a country where every layby is scenic and the HoS requires you to have a life.
trucksarekewl@reddit
One of the reasons I went local. Spending the night in crowded, pissy truck stops gets old quick. I can only eat subway and Dennys so many times. Literally haven't stepped foot in those places since
JankyMark@reddit
Facts
Drunkle54@reddit
Nothing like the aroma of a fried hamburger inside the truck.
Kruten10@reddit
Switzerland?
Laffenor@reddit (OP)
Closer in term of views. Norway.
Kruten10@reddit
Cool. I’m from Switzerland but moved to the US 10 years ago. Definitely wanna do a road trip in the Scandinavia countries
JD4101@reddit
What make of truck is that?
Laffenor@reddit (OP)
DAF XG+
JD4101@reddit
Beautiful interior. Better than the view nearly
Laffenor@reddit (OP)
I like it a lot.
Majestic_Fix_381@reddit
When I was cross country driving I realized how beautiful USA is , how I miss these views, drive safe out there
ConsciousAwareness69@reddit
Where this at driver?
Laffenor@reddit (OP)
Årdal, western Norway
opinionated_penguin@reddit
Looks a lot nicer than this trash filled lot in Fontana, CA I’m at rn
