With the countdown on to Father's Day, you're probably on the hunt for the perfect and most practical gift for the man of the house. Driving trucks for a living can be a challenging and lonely job, so if you're looking for something that will help make Dad's life comfortable and entertaining we've put together our top 5 Father's Day gifts for truck drivers.
Heavy duty phone case
A truck driver's phone is an essential tool of the trade for staying in touch while on long haul trips and for entertainment. The work can be rough though, so protection is crucial. For the toughest of the tough phone cases, The Vault V2 by Australian phone accessories store Sprout, provides maximum protection for your Dad's iPhone 5 or iPhone 5s.
AC/DC Power Inverter
Sometimes it's the creature comforts that make the long stints away from family more bearable. Being able to plug in appliances like a TV, microwave, video game or refrigerator are all made possible with an AC/DC power inverter. Tip: You'll want to look for a 1500 watts continuous power, with 3000 watts maximum power for the best possible output.
Audio Books
Audio books make a great gift for truck drivers. Dad can listen to recordings on novels, autobiographies or educational books. You might find that a subscription works best, which lets Dad pick books he's most interested in.
Portable Vehicle Safe
When a truck driver takes a break from the road, be it to take a shower or to eat a meal, leaving expensive personal belongings and cash in the cab can attract thieves. A portable vehicle safe is a great idea to protect Dad's belongings. Tip: A safe with an electronic key code is better than one with an ordinary key lock, although either should deter a thief.
