Can my oxygen concentrator ride in the bed of a truck in 100 degrees plus weather?

Well most likely you needed this answered yesterday but since no one's answered... Best to call your oxygen supplier. If it is secured it should be OK though. Obviously no 4 wheeling though. It's no like it's plugged in an being operated. I know that 02 canisters can ride in the trunk in hot temps. because I asked. Their answer: They stay in our parked vans in the heat of the summer. Still, I'd call the supplier just to be sure with exactly what you have, how long the trip is etc.
