    I could do that before the update. I always drive with the screen turned off (blacked out). Seeing the time just makes the day go by slower to me. It's like watching water come to boil.

    Not usually. You park on the street and check-in. Parking could be hard depending on how busy they are. They will ask you for a specific number to check in with, but I don't remember what it starts with. It's been a couple of months since I've been there.

    Pretty efficient day. Pickup loaded trailer in Ft Worth for delivery in San Antonio. Then washout and ran over to Bryan, Tx to drop trailer at customer then bobtail back up to Ft. Worth. 617 miles driven at 62mph. Been a while since I've ran 600 miles.

    I did indeed get the update today. I was hoping the black screen was a night-time mode, but it appears it will be black all of the time now, correct? That black background is almost too dark for the daylight hours.
