    Hello,
    I'm going down in a couple weeks for training in Fontana for a Central Refrigerated. I'm curious how anal they are for adding a CB in the company trucks and things. If I could have some pointers or advice I'd appreciate it.

    Thanks,

    Jacob

    why wouldn't they allow cb's but have no problem with their drivers having a gps.

    Must be a really big CB in order to need to modify the truck.

    Thanks.

    Ok thanks for the heads up. I'll remember that, don't want to mess anything up. Do you happen to know what kind of truck the new company drivers are getting put into?
