    Yeah we have Pike. I'm just whining about an old transponder that seems to have died. And the plus would cover us in more toll areas.

    Ok guys. Let's be a little more accurate on reporting what trailer you have. Just had this conversation with dispatch. This is at the Sam's Club DC/WCC in Colton, CA. I'm on the Sam's side for unload.

    As for the time difference, the Transflo app used local time and the QC uses yard time.

    I thought about that, but I rather the bulk of the tolls be pre-paid by JCT than to have my own toll unit.

    However, I did think about applying for my own NORPASS transponder. 35 bucks, no monthly fee, and it can be registered on the Pre-Pass network. So it would work basically everywhere, just would have to give JCT permits the info off it so they could get it registered with Pre-pass. Then I would have the NORPASS and the PrePass states covered in one transponder. You cant register it the other way (i.e. A PrePass transponder on the NORPASS network).

    Its great how they are asking it from you instead of asking the other driver "Hey could you double check the trailer you have?"

    I told them to call me because apparently the QC message wasn't being understood.

    Turns out the other driver is still saying he has my trailer. I'm like that's impossible because I'm not even empty and if he don't believe me then he is more than welcome to drive around to the Sam's side and look at my trailer number.

    Apprently this is a very common thing to happen, but usually easily fixed with the driver going oops, I typoed that number.
