    That's cool. What time is your delivery? You can pick up Costco whenever you can. But they don't want you to be any more than two hours early for your delivery.

    As soon as I get there ... they're picky on the reefer loads, but I've never had any issues on dry van being early ... a couple of times they've even live unloaded me because the drop van wasn't mtd out yet ...after I drop in Toledo, I need to head up for an 8am pu in Michigan.

    Ah yes, reefer is a whole different game. I drive GLR, which is 90% Costco. We were told a while back not to be too early with the loads, which sucks because the way they have them scheduled usually has way too much time on them. My delivery this afternoon was Costco, was supposed to be D/H but it turned into a live unload that cost me nearly four hours. Was not a happy camper. Anyway, off to bed. Be safe all.

    How does the lane departure alarm work? When you cross the white line to pass another vehicle does the turn signal negate the alarm?

    My truck doesn't have 1 but the loaners I get do, and today was my lucky day to get a loaner since my truck is getting a pm.

    Drove 150 miles and it created 3 critical events. If you cross the line without any signal it beeps at u and if you continue, it will created an event. The beep sounds like hitting the rumble strip. *Grrrrrrrrrrr* like that

    So yes your turn signal negate the alarm but, if you get ready close to the line, not even riding the line it will beep. Example, wide load coming to pass, wind pushing the trailer or my absolute favorite, construction zone with uneven lines or faded one. Causing my speakers to output this grrrrrrrr sound like some dubstep remix
     
    Dreamboat and Chinatown Thank this.

    No they didn't. What they told you was that it will record constantly and will transmit twenty seconds of video to the monitoring company when a critical event happens.

    "Saving" and "recording" are the same thing. The red light means the camera is communicating with the monitoring company. It doesn't always transmit critical event clips when they happen. It transmits video and other data in batches at various intervals. And of course it can only transmit when it has a connection.
