Someone has to pay to have the QualComm installed. What happens when the new truck gets the QualComm installed and quits the next day? Who covers the cost of this? Who pays for the cost of the QualComm when a truck leaves a company and cuts all the cables and mails it back and does not have...

Dave what is the personal conveyance time at Panther that is allowed? What is the criteria before you can take personal conveyance time? Do you know if there has been any problems with this? How did any company handle personal conveyance time legally before the EOBR?

Dave, you are right so why would the company not want to protect their interests by curtailing our personal conveyance to minimize their liability. Nothing has changed with the EOBR from paper logs we just now being held accountable when our truck moves.

FedEX signs I am sure looks really good to a lawyer as they have deep pockets. Us as O/O are small beans as we have very small pockets. I know when push comes to shove I am going to be looking our for our concerns not FCC they are on their own. I believe that this is a two way street and we...

One of the problems I see with personal conveyance is we have these HUGE FedEx signs all over our truck. If we get in an accident while on personal conveyance who are they going to sue? Can we explain to the lawyer we were just going down to the grocery store for a loaf of bread? Will the...

It is a FedEx Custom Critical thing and another way of direct communications. Virginia has done a few of these on the Driver Tech we tested and we have had a couple on the new QC. In the future in-cab training may be done this way instead of having to come to Green. There are lots of neat...

Joe the new unit is $35.00 right now which includes the truck GPS. Scanning is available on the new QC but not turned on. At a later date this may be activated and we will then scan our bills directly into the company and no more TripPak. I like the ability of the new scanner to get .wav...

I know that Molly is an upper crust type dog and she does not acknowledge a cats presence even if he is dressed as nicely as Dingle will be.

Well yes the whackos should all be there! I am not so sure Bob will put himself in the whacko category as he is the calm one of Team Caffee. I am also hoping we will have Henry Albert at our BBQ again this year. He just scratches his head at us Expediters as we are different group of people...

We will have to combine ideas as we have in the past had a awesome BBQ Saturday night out in the parking lot after the show. The expo is great about people meeting people and signs on the boxes have never came into play. We even invite the OTR guys! I think most of them think we are crazy...

We look forward to meeting up with you guys! We will also be at the Dallas show so may get to see you there. We are heading west now to get to the Vegas show next week! It will be to darn hot to cook in the parking lot though.

Thanks Rick for your reply.

That is why I said to check them! The TA's are like some of the Flying J's they are privately owned and do not honor the discounts.

Thanks everyone for all of your help and insight on our project to have two computers access the internet and not increase our bill I was able to get a MiFi at the Sprint store and this did not change my plan at all. The good news here is I my surfing speed went up! What a great bonus. Bob...

Our earlier credit that T-Chek added to our account is still showing online.

I wish I had the ability to send a load your way! If I could do that I could get us our of the some of the crazy places we get into. I hope you are out of the area by now as it is to hot to hang around. Now if by change you are there during the Las Vegas Truck Show or GWTS stop by and tell...

We are at home right now. As soon as I can get in the truck and get my sheet I will post the TA's. The one you speak of is the one in Denton, TX.

No decoder ring! The weekly email talked about when this would go into affect. We called into Tom and he asked us to try a few things and I then asked him if I could post what we learned. I am sure there will be an update in this weeks email.
