    Does U.S xpress Inc have APU on the trucks? Do they get mad if you idle at all and I hear you can only idle at 70+ degrees. How reliable is the trucker tech GPS? I hear it goes out and just better to buy your own GPS.

    No APU

    They let us idle when it's 70 and above, 28 and below. Trucks have a bunk heater when it's above 28. Works really well.

    Driver Tech GPS is good for the most part. Our first year we didn't have our own GPS. Relied on the atlas, Driver Tech GPS and Google Maps.

    Driver Tech I think is the best E-Log machine on the market.

    Driver Tech being the best on the market really? I watch YouTube videos about U.S. Xpress Inc and they say that Qualcomm is much better then Driver tech. Would it be worth it later down the line to invest in a better GPS?

    So is it true that U.S xpress Inc makes you do team driving after getting trained by mentor? It seem like U.S Xpress focus more team driving then solo.
