    Hello all,

    I have a question about what my boss is trying to implement on our trucks? Do you have any of these "GPS tracking devices" in your trucks and does it make life easier for the driver or harder? Well, its getting implemented in any case...


    Thanks,
    Adrian

    No, the question is what are your experiences if you have had them with these devices?

    and that will stop someone from siphoning your tanks how?
    good thing is--you will be the first to know when they did it
    maybe i missed the part where it comes with a time machine so you can travel back in time and stop them

    Putting the device on the truck doesn't change anything. If they use the programs correctly you may see more phone calls, but you may not. It's not going to prevent any theft, log violations, speeding, sudden decelerations, all it can do is help a company to collect data. The data is may be used to try to identify driver behaviors and to change them.

    If that was a sales pitch, it sucks.

    Hmmm, let's see. His email address is from a company domain called Enaikoon. On their website, the company is described as "ENAiKOON is specialised in telematics, localisation, fleet management, fuel saving, RFID... ""

    Enaikoon probably has an awful product if they pay employees to be lying spammers.
