The calls were very informative. Scott talked about the new QC and the pricing for the new unit will be $35.00. They will initially be installed at PJ's and then there will be more locations added. There will be no fee to replace your existing QC with the new unit. The QC will have training modules that you will go through. The new QC will have the EOBR and also a GPS. The GPS will get you from point a to point b with no help on finding rest areas or near by locations. So I think we will keep our GPS.

There was a lot of talk on CSA 2010 and how this will affect the drivers.

There were a lot of interesting questions that I hope they will publicize on the Extranet.

I'd rather have the basic no gps version for $30. The fee for the QC is terribly inflated by all the carriers. The rate shouldn't have gone up on these new ones.

To be honest, I would like to keep my current c-link. I finally got it working right, and now I have to get it changed, and watch it. I will have to go to PJ to get it installed, so they can screw up something else on my vehicle like last time.

I have no use for their GPS, or fuel economy, or miles, or internet, or any other crap. And probably, if we want to use the internet, it will cost us.

One thing I have not heard about it. Will we be able to scan paperwork on it and send it right away?

I hope I will be the last one in line for the swap. Wish our pay would go up just like our expenses. Another $265 dollars that I will not have at the end of the year. Arrrrgh.

Unless something has changed it will scan paperwork from the truck so no more making your way to a trippak box.

Will it still have the big ugly dome on the top, or the small flat thing that Bolt uses?

so are we going to be forced to get the new c-link or have the option of keeping the old one??

There is no option. It will be rolled out with each truck being given a deadline of when they must make the change.
