What company has the best service on the road? I have sprint and if I’m not near a big city I have no 4G and crap reception.
Best cell phone company for truckers with the best service?

AT&T has done very good for me.
-
T-Mobile is decent
-
I have two. Verizon for my work and AT&T for personal.
Still some dead zones that both don’t work like certain spots on the 93 going to Phoenix from Vegas.
The best bet is a weboost unit but I’ll get that once I get my tripac running. -
Had T Mobile. No where near the coverage of att.
I was Verizon since southern bell created the company. Due to Verizon’s attitude. Demanding payment for a phone they never provided. Slandering me on my credit report. After many years of loyalty. Verizon can go to H! -
Verizon. Hate their company but that have the biggest coverage in general.

I had sprint way back in the dual band coverage when 2 g was a fantasy. Voice and text (Barely)
No problems with it with the exception of being near Seattle where it tries to go international and roaming. Executive services had to put into computer orders to billing to discard that stack of charges.
Before that was a roll of quarters.
After sprint it was 10 dollar mexican cards. You could get 5 hours out of it if you used it all at once which was good for courting. Not good for schedule keeping. You can drive or you can get married but not both. =) It was worth it though. Been 20 years plus now and we are still rolling.
I have a 20 dollar smart phone with a govt life line on it. Its text only. Has a bit of internet which is essentially unlimited for me. But not very good with it.
It has two apps on it to deny scams, spammers and robo calling plus any number I care to add to that block which the phone company does not do. -
I have Verizon and T-mobile (2 lines on TMO, 1 talk/text only and 1 tablet with unlimited data). T-mobile has improved drastically over what they were a few years ago. It has gotten so I only use my Verizon phone as a hotspot to watch tv. For everything else I use TMO, especially when I go to Canada because my Verizon plan doesn't include service thru Canadian carriers. I run mostly east of the rockies and have found very few places where I don't have TMO service.

I have Sprint. I have no issues unless in Montana Wyoming, Nebraska ND SD and a couple others. Then I am on roaming and extended coverage. So no problem with voice and text anywhere usually.
It’s the LTE that’s the issue in those places.
I’m usually east of the Mississippi now and no issues except the occasional dropped call
