    Glock, .40 caliber and good training. Illegal, yes. But, I'd rather be judged by 12, than carried by 6.

    I see that several of us are thinking along the same lines here!:yes2557:

    AMEN, BROTHER. Posted by a 20+year retired copper! I'd rather be alive to defend myself in front of a jury.

    Sorry if i raised suspicions, but stealing or robbing trucks couldn't be further from my mind. Though you raise a good point; I'll admit the answers to the question would be useful information for someone who would have those intentions. If you don't want to provide me tips then at least point me the direction of a good company that provides security tech or services and i'll call them. Frankly, i don't know anything about trucking (except what i studied about the Landstar model in business school), and i would like to help out my cousin. You're right, the liability of this falls on the company he works for, but i believe his intention is to tell them that they either update their system or he's going elsewhere.

    All the best,

    James

    That works good for all of us, on this side of the border.

    Try it on the Mexico side. See where you get.

    Jail, if you can call it that......NO phone call. And IF you are lucky, there will be 12 people at your trial. Most likely, awaiting sentencing.
