    Share with us the sites you use or feel are vital to a trucker.

    Is there a site you use for truck stops, rest areas, special receiver sites, cheat sheet sites things of that nature.

    It would be nice to have a list of bookmarked sites that can be navigated quickly.

    I have states bookmarked on my phone for road closures. For everything else. There's an app for that.

    I'm not online that much.

    For truck stops I have my GPS and a paper guide.
    Don't know what a special receiver site is.
    Rest areas show up on my GPS, and many are listed in my guide.

    Personally, I think you are over-thinking things a bit.

    Cheat sheets?
    Did you also cheat in school?

    Special receiver site might be for a major company that has multiple DC's. Maybe thats how you get your dock number? I dont know thats why Im asking if there is one.

    Cheat sheet would be for all the nonsense you need to know but dont need to remember. You might remember it as a pen or pencil and a sheet of paper. I was thinking more modern. What I did or not do in school has nothing to do with the questions asked.

    I like to "over-think" things, thats how I prepare. Any and all information I can gather before I get on the road the better.
