Any ELDs with a "Buy it Now/Order Now" button?

I'm leased on to Landstar, 1995 truck. I use 'Motive' which used to be 'Keep truckin' -

$26/month for data charge. Hooks into 'J' port and a box on the dash. Don't remember the price for the box.

Customer service for the few times I've had to call has been good, offshore, but little wait time and quick resolution.

As for your anger - I'm right there with you. Every man and his dog got into the 'market' (regulation forced down our throats), and 70% of them have exited the market leaving thousands of frustrated users.

Yes - should have been provided free of charge from the onset - paper logs were just that, $3 for a log book, and administrative fees for keeping records.

I use an old iPhone for the display, which, annoyingly, has to be mounted and visible, so had to purchase a mount and ruin the interior of a nice older model truck, along with the black stain box on the dash for compliance. When that phone gives out, that'll be another $500 or so.

Screw them and their regulations. Should be a tax CREDIT , not deduction for this BS that we have to pay for, that we never asked for or wanted. Paper logs were fine, devices just made drivers dumber than they already were. Thanks Werner.

Rant over - good luck.

 

Look into Konexial. Great office features (IFTA, etc), and pretty easy in the cab.

Not perfect, but nothing is. I particularly like their geo-fencing approach for exemptions (150 mile radius, etc). Plus oil field exemptions, state specific hours, you name it. Support has been better than I had hoped (admittedly, a low bar these days).
