    Can't you read between the lines. He wants to run illegal and he's asking us for advice on how to run illegal without coming out and asking how to run illegal.

    Actually, for your information, I don’t want a computer telling me how to drive my truck (not gps or ecm**:)) you assume because I don’t want an eld I want to run illegal. Most people that don’t run them just don’t like having their truck neutered if they are 5 mins down the road from a truck stop and out of hours.

    I don't have one and don't even get asked for it.

    The joys of being local and running outlaw.
