    Specific frustrations with ELDs?

    Ha. I'm thinking more in line of that OOIDA will do what the ATA wants and it won't be in your best interest.

    Specific frustrations with ELDs?

    Fairly sure our little Tablet is a legal device but that's safety Dept's problem not mine. If I have to have one this tablet is the one I would pick over the QC units. Or what ever they are called now.

    No, My wife has the exact same tablet but without the ELD software.. I'm not a computer guy but I think its Omnitracks XRS. Maybe a spinoff of Qcomm?

    We have the Samsung tablet that ya can buy at any Version store. No wires, works great when dispatch knows how to read it. :D But rumor has it they are going to invest in another system. Why I don't know, this one works fine. Or at least as good as any QC I ever had. Where you get the software...

    Hope it works for you folks. Kinda sounds like you wanna go new and that will speed up the shopping time, just be ready for sticker shock. And unless you are finding your own freight, before ya sign purchase, I would consider carrier shopping for a carrier that can actually support teams. I...

    Go with a system that allows flexibility for your drivers. Something that allows personnel drive time after mandatory rest requirements have been met. Without it you may have a problem keeping drivers. Pretty stupid to have a system that starts the clock so a driver can go get grocery's or go to...

    Part of i96 in Michigan closed.

    Same here, in fact I have recently made it a point to family and friends that there seems to be a decline in courtesy and defensive driving by 53fts. I have advised them to stay clear and keep a safe distance. Maybe its just me but things kinda seem to be going backwards out here on the road...

    Looking at local pictures it appears big trucks in front of the pack. (But that don't mean nothing..)

    I-94 sting this week. Heads up.

    I don't know about that. I would lean more towards a group of folks that feel they are entitled. Entitled society breeds crappy and disrespectful drivers. Also lean towards what Knight is getting at, and I don't know what the survey says but it seems the number of big truck wrecks along I-94 has...

    Lol Sorry to break it to you..Fix the van up and get all ya can out of her for now. Dollar for dollar some vans are doing better then straights.. Keep looking forward but not sure I would be jumping just yet. (Leased on to carrier, not finding my own freight)

    First shot at actually getting a load this month. No freight ready @ pick-up time but dispatch actually got it right this time, well almost, sent me to a address that doesn't exist but I found it and there should be freight going out today. They just have to manufacture it first. But hey I just...
