    I have EFS, use all three major TS apps, and i’ve never once been hacked. I’m not sure what’s going on with other drivers, but i’ve had zero issues

    Does it happen more, or do we just hear about it more? We are a bunch of gossiping hens around here. I wish someone would hack my card. After a million plus miles in my wallet, it’s getting pretty rough. Most of the time it won’t even swipe.

    Almost daily my Sam-crappa unit shows the wrong location when I do my post trip and shut down for the night. Last night it showed me doing my post trip in SD (and I was parked in Rock Port, MO) then the next entry was my off duty in the correct location in MO. Do a reboot of the unit and it fixes it. I brought it to safety's attention and the Samsara guy said "don't worry about it". I am half tempted to stop rebooting and then refuse to certify every log that is incorrect so that safety management sees there is a problem. Telling me to certify an incorrect log is just wrong.

    My Samsara kept putting me on Drive when I was parked with the truck off the other morning. It finally corrected itself about 20 minutes later.

    As fair as fuel card hacking, my company uses Comdata and we have had a few cards hacked also.

    Interesting, i pretty much only use the app to fuel and rarely pull the card out anymore. Makes me start to worry about not having locking fuel caps…

    Amazingly enough my 1st stop is directly across the interstate from the Pilot in Benton, AR

    Glad I came down to the customer's neighborhood today... Bentonville's forecast yesterday was a winter weather advisory with just an inch or two predicted. Now, it has been raised to a winter storm warning with 4-6" predicted starting after midnight.

    I have tracked down when my Samsara changes my logs to the incorrect location(to a point). When I shut down last night, everything was accurate and correct. This morning when I started the truck to get it back online with my truck's ecm, it changed the location of my post trip on duty time and my off duty time that immediately followed. In the morning I will check it before I start the engine to see if it is the interaction between my truck and it's gateway that is the issue or if when it lost connection to the truck overnight that is causing it to change my logs.
