    What a great idea. Now if the companies would install it for the average company driver.

    You know they won't cause they'll say it'll cost too much money.

    I believe that the larger and more "intelligent" carriers will understand the long term benefits and cost savings of installing something like this. The initial outlay would be cheaper for them because they will get a "bulk rate" discount. Unless the unit breaks, it could be transferred truck to truck as the fleet renews itself.

    I guess my only question would be, "Who, exactly are these larger and more intelligent carriers?". :biggrin_2554:
