    I adjusted mine so it thinks I am lighter than I really am.

    Mine is the same way! Musta chimed 25 times in a 50 mile stretch in Nebraska... I hate that thing. And I have only used it a 1/2 dozen times... I'll stick with my RM720
    Orr downloaded all his bookmarks when I was training on his truck. I have added just about every stop I have made. Unfortunately I can't use the update/docking feature because no computer 'recognizes' it. I would love to share it with others....
    Eventually I will buy a new one and then transfer all the addresses by hand I guess. What a drag.

    Here's one for @ncmickey
    When I was getting fuel Thursday night/Friday morning the St.Paul Saints team bus had stopped there as well in there way to Lincoln. Had my braves hat on and one them came up to me asking me what I thought about them. Spoke with him for about 5-10 minutes. It was Kerry Littenberg their pitching coach. He was the braves closer in the late 90's for a while. Horta love independent league baseball

    That's pretty cool!!

    Wasn't his name Ligtenberg? He took over for Mark Wohlers when he fell apart and forgot how to pitch. If I remember right...he had a one good year and got injured... His replacement was the infamous John Rocker! Those were the Braves heyday!! What happened?? Worst team in Baseball now. Even the Twins are laughing at them....
    The only reason I remember that is from playing a baseball trivia game one night. Ligtenberg was discovered playing for some independent farm team by a scout and the Braves bought his contract by sending the team some bats and balls...lol... Always remember a good story like that...

    Yes that's him sorry my spelling sucks. His manager was Greg Olson before he signed with the braves Olson was a catcher for the braves before he managed and recommended him to the braves.
    They just stink. Hope all these young arms work out that they have in the minors. I have my doughts. Often injured and don't seem to be progressing along.
    They stink but they are my team. Been a braves fan my whole life growing up in NC. When they where bad in the 80's they at least had some fun players to like. This team just isn't likable except for Freeman and Frenchy before he was traded this week

    I feel your pain. I have been a Red Sox fan since I was a kid... Many many disappointing seasons before 2004.........1975, 1986 and 2003 being particularly painful. Especially growing up in NJ around all Yankee and Mets fans.....

    I know that 50 mile stretch in Nebraska! It tries to route me off the highway for 50 miles to get around that stretch lol. I had to research if there was traffic or construction of something... Nope just "overweight".

    I can't trust the thing. There are so many places it tries to route me around because it thinks there is a weight restriction but there isn't. Then there are places it doesn't warn you about but there are restrictions. Then when there is a restriction sometimes it doesn't offer an alternate route, it just asks you to "accept" it or stop the route altogether. Lol

    Scored a day of layover in Napoleon. Ended up getting my Campbells load around 4am Friday, then ran up to Coon Rapids and dropped there. Got a 3 stop Jennie O load headed to GA. I should finish out August with around 12k miles even with 3 days at home.

    Use file explorer and the database is in navi -> user -> address book, iirc

    Just copying the address file to your laptop instead works better than the rand app. You don't lose all the notes.

    Laptops tend not to push enough juice through the usb port, may have to try several times to get it to recognise using the rand app. If all else fails, use a "real" computer for updates. I noticed the app is on the computer at Coon Rapids. You'll want to for map updates, the files are very large.

    I am a 1' long, 1' high, 1 pound truck.

    Had a trainee boot the #### thing up just because he had to see how it worked because he was too broke to buy his own., wish he had never touched it. Now it has to load all the way correctly or the whole screen freezes.
