Will you be shopping for a trucker or a motor home owner this holiday season? We have put together some great gift ideas that would be very thoughtful for any gift giving occasion.
For the cab we recommend a 12 volt heated and insulated coffee mug.
For the 12 volt mobile kitchen we recommend several products to make life on the road much more comfortable.

A 12 volt blender for preparing fresh fruit drinks, milk shakes and other tasty treats.

A 12 volt coffee maker is a great gift idea for the coffee lover who is rarely near 110 volt power.

A 12 volt oven is perfect for preparing a healthy meal or cooking personal pizzas while on the road.

A 12 volt refrigerator freezer is a great way to store healthy food and stay away from fast food.

For the sleeper and times when idling are not an option we have a few great ideas.

A direct hook up 12 volt ceramic heater is sure to keep the cold out. Your friend or loved one will think of you every time they climb into bed with a 12 volt heated blanket or bunk warmer!

For the movie lover and anyone who needs to replace their portable TV due to the analog to digital transition a new 12 volt 13″, 15″ or 19″ widescreen lcd flat panel TV with a built in ATSC digital tuner.
Anyone doing a little house keeping would really appreciate a new 12 volt direct power or rechargeable 12 volt vacuum cleaner. Another 12 volt rechargeable or direct power product that anyone who spends more time in a vehicle than at home would really like to have is a 12 volt spotlight.
