    If you don't mind dragging tarps around and climbing, you may like it, you don't have to back into as many docks as with a van. It takes a little care to try and stay clean, but it's not bad, as far as a job goes. drive55cat

    I think they run paper, not for sure though. On the brochure they sent me it said they had a choice of auto or manual.

    we have paper logs, the in cab email is based off the qualcom, but you may as well just get a computer with an aircard. I am sitting in dallas waiting on a load typing this in my truck. Loads out of dallas are slow on thursdays

    The card I bought recently (from Verizon) was $49.99 + about $79 a month for the service.

    I've only had it for 2 weeks, but already I've decided it's the best thing I ever bought!
