Coleman must be half good, half bad. Some people get the good ones and swear by them. I've only bought one, because it only lasted a week, and wasn't very cold even for the few days it did work. I never bought another. I'm all Koolatron now. They don't last forever, but they last longer than any other I've bought.
We've got the coleman, its been running for over a year now, and keeps drinks/food cold. (then again, half the year has been COLD)
No version exclusively for trucks, BUT here is a great add-on that coupled with MS S+T's puts the program on a par with any of the truck specific GPS units costing several hundreds of $ more: http://www.truckstopsplus.com/. If you don't already have MS S+T's you can download a fully functioning 60 day copy here: http://www.microsoft.com/streets/en-us/trial.aspx. With the two programs working together you can easily locate the five major TS's and almost 5000 independants; super Wal Marts as well as identifying the ones that allow overnight truck parking; rest areas; fuel prices; and much more useful info. Truckstopsplus has a free download demo (acccess from their url above) for the state of Indiana only. Another helpful website, for both MS S+T but laptop GPS's in general, can be found here: http://www.laptopgpsworld.com/749-tips-tricks-microsoft-streets-trips. A real time GPS locator can be added to the program too. I bought one from Amazon that works well: http://www.amazon.com/GR-213-USB-Ho...RDFO/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1297219171&sr=8-1 And of course both programs are on the hard drive and always accessible without an internet connection. Access to current fuel price info, however, does require an internet connection.
what he said. http://www.laptopgpsworld.com/2595-poi-mega-file-pushpin-collections-truckers-rvers-other-travelers that one is free.
Yeah...a brain! and maybe a heart...gee...how about a little courage....now just click your heels three times and say....."I wanna be a trucker"...just sayin'....where in the world is DickJones?
