    You have a Good memory.

    Yes that is a VDO roadlog Solo. It cost me $800. You plug a USB stick into the right side to transfer your logs to your PC. In the event you get inspected you print off your logs on a grocery store receipt about 4 feet long too small for the DOT cop to read. $4 worth of paper per inspection but you’ll never get inspected because they hate it

    I could see you on the side of the road, the log is half printed and the inspector / cop is like, "You know what, never mind . . ."
    And you are like, "OH NO, WE'RE DOING THIS BUDDY!!!"

    LMAO!!!!

    Lol yeah this cost me $4 and I want s receipt.

    The truth is when they see it on the dash they don’t even ask. They only ask to see blank paper logs as required in case the Elog craps out. Eloggers are the outlaws now
     
    FlaSwampRat and Coffey Thank this.

    You might not like it, but if your driving a truck, with some exemptions, you are required to use it or some other ELOG device to keep track of the time and miles.
