    OK, Recently I noticed a huge spike in the amount of times my EOBR is freezing up? When I called in to talk with my travel agent, the message wasn't real explicit but it sounded like there are some new features to be possibly released? Anybody have any more info, on whats soon to come? Thank you...

    Will be limited Internet access. Will be able to see your scorecard which is basically your utilization of your time, miles etc. etc.

    I don't think so but you look at Google Earth.

    A scorecard? Not liking it already. I don't believe they look at numbers the proper way to come to logical conclusions as it is. But, I'm eternally pessimistic, too.

    LOL! Well for example.. they give me a run from nc to ny. They give 609 miles, when I map it..it takes 700 to take all us and highways, for shortest route. Yet this puts me over on my %.. an its my fault??? uhm...why?

    When you say you mapped it. Do you mean for shortest route or shortest easiest route? A two lane doesnt necessarily have to be bad. Some two lanes are not bad roads at all.

    Sometimes though there is no good short route and you just have to eat those extra miles. I find though at those times the oor is low because mav's routing is based on practical truck routes not on goat paths.

    I took my map book, and figured out the shortest route.. and came up with 700 + miles. An yes I know I will eat it. I know Maverick doesn't do practical miles to pay drivers. But it is all good, I got 609 miles to start week.. atleast i got a start, just wish it wasnt going to be tuesday, lol

    I think Mav should pay on practical routing. I'd take that over a raise next go around.
