    Not being a smart-###, were you ever even shown how to use one? I know its required to be in the truck in case your 'puter fails, but i doubt they spent much time on how to use it.

    I was thinking along the lines of Bam Bam from the Flint Stones with that dang club, but “dawned” is what I’ve always meant to say! I never use that phrase so I forgot :biggrin_25523:

    And they told you to always have a spare calculator, never average more than 5 under the posted speed limit, and you can safely shave miles by 20%... right? :D

    Personally I HATED paper logs. Dirty hands = dirty pages. Loved being on the Keeptruckin' app though.
