    Is there an indicator that stays in place after you pass the scale?. The prepass used to intermittently blink green long after you passed the scale. I heard that was in case you received a bypass when you should have gone in and DOT comes after you, you can point out that you were following the prepass instruction and weren't intentionally trying to evade the scale.

    Sorta!

    The QC main menu has a "DriveWyze" option. If you press that button, it will tell you the location of the last weigh station it knows about, whether or not it told you to bypass the station or go in, and the time it told you to bypass/go in. So if you get pulled over for bypassing a weigh station, you can easily show them that you got a bypass signal from DriveWyze.

    I wanted to try their wings but ventured down the Steak route and was not disappointed... I added this place in my GPS as a Good Food Stop for future runs.

    Pick up in the morning here in Columbus and dropping in Wytheville on Monday... so I’ll be in the Greater Wytheville Area with time on my hands... if anyone wants to grab a meal or beverage.

    Don't park anywhere in Wythe county that isn't assigned truck parking!!!. I pulled over on the shoulder near Gatorade for 5 minutes to read a QC message and my bank account is now $360 lighter because of it. :mad:
