For over twenty years, I've been studying truck cabs with sleeper cabs. In most cases, when there are controversial questions, I look for interior photos. But you know it's very difficult. I agree with you that the movers were also crew members. But I am also sure that in the case of long-distance flights, the driver could sleep on the bench. By the way, if you have pictures of old trucks with a sleeper cab, please share.Leo Niehorster wrote: ↑23 Jun 2020, 00:29@ Dima: In peacetime, moving vans could also transport household goods over long distances. Upon mobilization, many of these heavy trucks — with their trailers — were requisitioned for Wehrmacht use. Their drivers were frequently inducted and stayed with their vehicles. The Wehrmacht obviously did not have a need for a lot of household moving vehicles, so these trucks were used to transport a variety of cargo. They were pretty much limited to good roads, so most of this type of truck were used in the Grosstransport units.
@ Bert: The large window in the back seems to indicate a passenger position. Most of the sleeper cabs had a smaller window, if at all.
