    Abstract: A vehicle cab has an airflow deflector (9) pivotally mounted on it for movement between a lowered position and a raised position in which the deflector is inclined upwardly and rearwardly from a front upper portion of the cab, and the deflector has, or is associated with, side and rear walls which together with the deflector define a compartment above the cab when the deflector is in a raised position. Access can be gained into the compartment from inside the cab. A bunk (11) can be provided in the compartment for a person to sleep in the compartment. Seats in the cab have back rests (4) which fold down on to the seats, or can be removed, so that a bunk, which is stowed at the back of the seats when not in use, can also be erected in the cab over the seats.
