    Is it powered by the index finger of the nearest midget?

    Lots of people still on trees. At least the loose-leafs still flying out windows like confetti 20 miles either side of the West Hawk scale lead me to believe that.

    i use blue ink tech ELD. $250 to buy their device that hooks to your diag port... no other payments unless you want to sign up for their ifta tracking which is $120 a year... its not a fancy eld but it gets the job done and keeps you compliant.. you just need a tablet or phone with bluetooth connection and download their app

    If I had to run an eld however I would probably get the add on for my garmin since it already does ifta and the dash cam, I hate having stuff all over my dash so if it’s all contained it would be great

    Garmin eld coupled to my garmin dezel gps works for me.
    The garmin dezel also does my IFTA tracking.

    I use Big Road (hate it) and a Galaxy tablet mounted. Phone is too small for my aging eyes.

    I wanted Keep Trucking ELD but got into it with them when they couldn’t get me the gateway in a timely manner. Big Road gateway was on my doorstep in two days.

    Personally, I liked Omnitracs the most out of every ELD I’ve used.
