    I am looking for a multifunction clock that I can velcro to my dash that shows at a glance, the following:

    1) time in home time zone, fixed.
    2) local time, auto adjust based on travel
    3) time remaining before next mandated break
    4) countdown timer for said mandated break(30 minute, 10 hour, 34 hour)


    Does such a thing exist? Looking for a source... I hate trying to look at my phone when in motion and actually tuck it out of view, but can still answer incoming calls using bluetooth.

    You could have all those in one screen on a smart phone, then make a mount on the dash for it.

    1. The clock on your dash, which you set to your home time zone.
    2. Your phone or GPS.
    3. The Qualcom.
    4. Again, the Qualcom.


    And how difficult is it to keep your current time zone in mind?
    Add one or two, or subtract from the base time zone.

    I believe one of the Rand McNally trucker GPS units has most if not all of those functions. Ive been looking into several of the available units and there are a ton of functions on them.

    I was going to say Qualcom too I think he means just an all in one clock(truckers clock) Your time hours for reset for example will eventually stay in your head once youve drove a while. Cant use QC while moving or at least the companies I drove with.
