    Most if not all truck GPS systems can track you within 50ft of your truck 24 hrs a day, its a matter of getting on the phone with someone to check out what your up to. Not exactly a camera in your truck but now you know at least one option they have :Satellite:

    I do not know for sure what their plans are. As I understand it, they got a few cameras (don't know how many) to test out at a reduced price. If they like them they obviously can purchase more.

    I guess like in everything time will change how things are done and what is considered normal. Just like seat belts. My dad still will not wear one ever while my son always does and wonders why grandpa is so silly for not wearing his.

    I would be happy to have a forward facing camera, but a camera looking into my "house" is not cool. But I do agree with what you said. The people that don't like it will move on and they will hire other drivers whoa don't know any different.

    You can disable that on my phone. You might to want to check the manual for your phone to see if you can as well. Also don't use Google maps as it will track your phone. You would be better off using a GPS system like Garmin etc.

    I could care less if anyone knows where I am, they just don't need to know what I'm doing.
