    I don't own this truck or trailer. My company can track it all they want. I didn't make any capital investments here.

    If you own a cell phone, you're already being tracked and monitored. By the government. You should be more concerned about that than company drivers in company trucks.

    I think David gets it...doesn't bother him. Doesn't bother me either. Why does it bother you, generic? In a world surrounded by Satellite surveillance, do you really think your rig isn't visible? If so, think again. The only thing flying over is a seagull with digestive issues.:biggrin_25520:

    We use trackit, it sucks sometimes because the dispatchers can see every time we stop for a coke or a burger, but it comes in handy when we're out in rural or unfamiliar areas. They can pull up and tell us where to go turn by turn.

    Of course, it helps that I don't really give a #### if they see me stop to eat! Lol
     
    Big Don Thanks this.

    If I gave some random person 200k worth of my equipment I'd have some trackers on it.

    Forgive me, but why do you love not being tracked?

    What are you doing?

    Sometimes it seems impossible enough for them to find an empty trailer for me when I need one, I couldn't imagine if they had to rely solely on the customers knowing what's actually on their yard. Less time searching and more time making money. You want to track me 24/7 that's fine with me I've got nothing to hide anyway.
