    I was on there today and I agree. I run the 30 miles that I64/I81 run together regularly and I always dred it. The combination of folks driving 5 under and 10 over the speed limit is insane.

    After I got empty and was on the interstate headed home from Sanford(and not under a load) they send me this

    I hadn't received this message the whole trip until after I was empty. The other driver said he got this reminder every day even though the trailer isn't overdue for anything. That's how messed up this auto-notify system can be. Plus, they waited until I was home and in ny jammies (almost 3 hours after leaving the consignee) before sending me a message asking if I was going home. Needless to say, I only saw it this morning.

    Lately. It seems like their system is gone bonkers because he was giving me the notification about a scalehouse that I was allegedly approaching, even though it was 20 miles behind me… I think their GPS crap tracking wise is not working right… All I could do is laugh at it

    That scalehouse warning for the scales west of Nebraska City only has one trigger coordinate. I get the same message at the same location whether going east or west. Going east, you're well past the scales. They definitely need to tweak their coordinates on that crap. The last time I spent time in Lincoln, the company car was gone, so I PC bobtailed to the Walmart on the east side of Lincoln off of I-80, and at the ramp getting off, I got the warning for the scales east of there, then when I was headed back, I got the same message getting on the interstate headed down the west bound entrance ramp. They need to quit wasting memory and data with that whole system.

    The other thing about the scalehouse warning is it’s telling you to check your tire pressure yeah like you’re gonna pull on the side of the highway a half a mile from the scale to check your tire pressure gee like they won’t see it in the distance

    How long before we hear "Uh oh, I stopped at the side of the road before the scalehouse to read the message and a cop gave me a warning for stopping there because it wasn't an emergency!!!!" Real safe.

    Ahhh Stelantis/Ram. 114,000ish miles on my wife's 1500. I have the new oil cooler/filter housing to replace the defective OEM plastic unit. Now, while doing a 4 wheel brake job, I notice a drip-drip-drip of coolant coming out of the back of the pulley on the water pump...so now I get to replace the water pump as well as the oil cooler. That's the A/C twice, water pump, oil cooler, radiator.
