    All new trucks and trailers = $$$$$$$$$$ which translates in to stress all the way down the food chain, which translates in to falsified logs, bad pre trip inspections, speeding tickets, accidents, and a " just get it done" attitude.
    Just my opinion.....

    Well my company does. In fact I have the combo prepass and EZPass It don't cost me a dime. In fact every tractor in the fleet has them

    Actually, I've never worked for a company that didn't pay for Pre-Pass. That said, I agree, it is well worth $16 a month if a company doesn't provide it.

    Learn something new everyday. In any event, the sixteen bucks is money well spent.

    This is only the third company I have worked for in 30+ years. My previous 2 didn't get involved with it. They said it was too much paperwork. It took me about 2 hours one day to get everything taken care of and I haven't regretted it since.

    Im with you 100%. Well worth $16 a month.

    I didn't realize an individual could even buy/pay his own. Good info, may come in handy in the future.

    At least they help you out a little. My satellite costs me 16.95 p/m.....and I get Howard Stern, The Playboy channel and a lot of entertainment. No harassment for me.

    Pete1 There is stress in transportation as a whole! However as drivers it is our responsibility to be SAFE. I have never had anyone in the office mash the accelerator or do my logs.Neither do they do my pre-trips or turn my wheel ! Not being smart just saying I AM responsible for what I DO!
