    No You feel people only want logs to cheat. Some do some don't. You are the only one that can be right I understand.

    You basically calling me a lier and a cheat because I'm on paper. No other explanation for you. Yes I do take offense to that.

    I read it as "your truck might be compatible, so why rule it out?" Is there any reason you refuse to consider elogs?

    I concidered paper, elog and abord I decided to keep paper. That don't mean I cheat my logs as he has said is the only reason to keep paper. I personally see elog hooked to my ecm as a invasion. I need to give a shop permission to go in to my ecm. However I have to let dot. Look at a device hooked into my Ecm. What's next will they be allowed to hook up to my ecm see what my settings are? I own the truck I own the company I decided to keep paper and cheating was not a reason for it. The only reason to keep paper is to cheat is a asinine statement. I'm personally tired of hearing it. Maybe the only reason to have elog is your too stupid to fill a log out? How about we bend over let the government do anything they want I mean I'm sure they have our best interest in mind.

    I didn't need to call you that. I said you don't have to admit it. What other explanation is there that people want paper logs? Besides, if you're none of those then my comments don't matter to you. You don't even know me, and yet you're letting my opinions bother you. Who would have thought that strangers can have so much power over people. Look, it don't matter to me how you log. Nobody who comes on here regularly was born yesterday, nor did any of us start driving yesterday. It's no other reason why people want paper logs, or would even go through the hassle of trying to buy a pre-2000 truck. Some folks are still upset about the mandate even a year later.....too bad OOIDA don't know how to fight, nor did they really have a puncher's chance in this fight.

    first I had this truck for years I did not go through the hassle of buying a older truck. Why are you so narrow minded that you feel the only reason is to cheat? I looked at theoptions for the year truck I had. My truck is in top shape I'm not going to just sell it if it was newer that a 2000 I would go with elogs and never miss a beat. I found paper to be cheaper and less intrusive. If you knew the areas I run you would know I go through a lot of tolls everyday. What's on toll receipts the time. Making it almost impossible to cheat. However you continue to say it's ok you don't have to admit it but we know why. Must really suck going through life thinking there is no other way but your way. Personally I'm tired of hearing it. why can't you get it through you narrow mind not everyone cheats your comments just show how asinine you are and what's wrong with the industry. Your still insisting I have to be cheating. You don't know ,e but you know what I'd do.
