    They send you a route through the Quallcomm, but once you get to the delivery city, you are pretty much on your own, its best to call shipper/reciever for final directions.

    Enjoyed the ride along! Good driving man! Are you sure your over 18! It's probably a lot of work putting those vids together and I am sure it eats up a lot of your down time but those vids will be so valuable to you when you get older or if you ever come off the road. Actually if you do come off the road I give it a month before you watch one of your vids and want to jump right back into a truck! Hell I watch them and start to get itchy! Makes me really miss it that's fosho! Keep em' comin!

    Yes they send you Directions through the QuailComm with your fuel stop info and load info.

    Although they are not always they best/fastest/or most practical way to go, which is why GPS comes in SOOO handy in that you can see if another route will get you there faster...


    And like wing rider said as of right now its only good for Highway directions, but they sent out a Fleet message on the QC telling us that its being updated to do local roads as well.

    Happened to you to huh? I just did the same friggin thing! They need to set it up like email so that every few seconds it automatically saves. The forum must be "glitchy" tonight.

    AT - do your write up in MS word, then it is spell checked, you can save it as a log for your self, and then just copy and paste it into here?? This would allow you to keep good records of you adventures on the road???
