    I agree that multiple tabs are needed for route planning I want to be able to look at all the possibilities if I had my way I'd install a multi screen workstation in the truck. I think I can actually connect my laptop to the tv and use it as a monitor

    i want a new laptop i might use this as an excuse to get one and then write it off since it'll be used pretty much just for business

    Yeah that's a good point. I've been off the road for a while and will be buying everything all over again. I need to save ALL my receipts. TV, CB, cooler/frig, GPS and everything else, gets expensive and will be nice to write it all off.

    What's the wifi service like nowadays. Back when I quit OTR in 2007 all the truckstops charged a fee and had lousy service. Any better nowadays?

    Still the same, but you want a jetpack or use your smartphone as a hotspot. Always need a connection on choice.
