    Then bolt them in the truck? What if the driver is away from the truck, like in an abandonment situation.

    Again with minimal information provided when people are just trying to help you!

    What the heck does small fleet mean? Smaller than Swift's 15 thousand?

    How hard is it to say 5, 47 or about 300?

    Sorry for the rant.

    I would suggest you look into Big Road. It is a logging app that works well with Tablets and Smart phones. It will allow you to view where the trucks are in real time. I received a call letting me know that I had turned the wrong direction from an employer using it.
