    No prices on web site, must fill out forms and KT will get back with you.
    Starting to believe that the company I am leased to is attempting to put more in their pocket again.

    $240 a year, $360 if you want to keep track of state miles and stuff.

    Yes the ELD mandate has turned into another revenue source !
    $ 500.00 escrow
    $ 9.00 per week charge
    On top of that the O/O must provide the phone/ tablet and data plan.

    Yes but then they burn up your phone with calls to buy.

    I know right? The nerve of someone to develop a product and then charge for it!

    Yeah, you seem to have misunderstood. Offloading the cost of a company requirement to the driver is just another sneaky way of nickel and diming the driver when it should be covered by the company they're leased on to

    If they require you to buy a certain brand as a stipulation of your lease then they can’t make you pay for it because it’s considered required equipment. Same with the companies that required QualComm for dispatching. Legally they couldn’t pass that cost through to the owner operator. If all they require is an eld of your choice then they don’t have to pay.

    And yes, I misunderstood you. I thought you meant eld companies charging, not trucking companies.
