    are we talking computer electronics in the trucks? Software updates? Shouldn't be to hard should be doable while driving right (start before driving let finish while driving? Or do it while resting?) no different than updating a pc at home?

    He talking about the old qualcomm systems in the prostars which are prone to going out when you driven on a cloudy day. Most off it is manual vs the new system which is automated.(h.o.s. part of it)

    My Qualcomm went down last week (would get to the start screen but would just restart) and no one was blamed. It happens. They just had us keep paper logs until we got to a terminal and they had it fixed. No sweat there.

    This was the new one with the touch screen by the way.
