is this a good choice for truck drivers?

We were using these to test equipment, so I am not sure. I asked one of our techs and he said that a dvd player might be a better option for truck drivers. Hope this helps.

Well what can i say. it's a awesome dash can. it has a great image on rhe display. I use my small suv for work and it's also my family weekend truck. during the week most of the day my truck is just park so i don't catch nothing on the road. on my weekend well i don't drive that much. Why? Becuse im a truck driver and when the weeken comes i just want get some rest. But i am planning to get one dash cam my 18 wheeler.

Yes sir!! This a nice truck the only con to it is you just can't go to your hobby store and pick up parts. Most of the time you have to order them online

not sure... i do know that this product is not good for truckers, as it is advertised. and I will not go with garmin again when this gets replaced.

I drive truck, but still use an auto GPS. I was considering upgrading to a truck model before Christmas, but the prices for them wasn't discounted much. I did do a bunch of research, though. From everything I read, it sounds like none of the models are perfect, and some are a waste of money. The one that seems to have the least complaints, and a decent amount of features, was the Garman 465T.

yes, but of course you will want to tighten the trucks or bring a wrench with you to adjust to your preference depending on the type of riding and speed, also of course wear proper protection... great board for the price, and looks good too..

Thanks for the info. I just purchased it and look forward to installing it on my truck.

No, but if you just take the inside poles out so it collapses, throw a tarp over the truck bed, it's perfect for driving. Takes 15 minutes to set up once relocated.

MBX makes awesome mountain boards. I would recommend upgrading to a board with better trucks. I know it represents a significant price increase, but it is worth it when it comes to ease of ride and performance.

I, wont take mine on the highway. Wont even plate it. I am not a qualified mechanic/trailer builder. I just use mine on the ranch, hauling tools and whatnot. Maybe if you are confident in your building skills it would be ok. To me it seems a bit small to pull down the road behind a pick up or car. Wheels are too small for me, also i dont think it has enough weight to keep it stable. For the road, and for safety, if it were me, i'd get something bigger. Just one mans opinion.

It should be fine. I have mine on my truck and it works as advertised, quite well.

I bought this for my husband who is a truck driver. He loves it. Says it warms up and gets hot really fast. He makes eggs and oatmeal in it all the time. Easy clean-up too. Hope this helps. :)

I have been very pleased with the performance makes the truck come alive. I have noticed that the truck shifts better. It all depends on which setting you are in. #3 gives best mpg and great for Highway driving or showing off but shifts seem harder when just city driving. I use #2 setting all the time shifts feel good and major performance compared to stock plus 2-4 mpg's better. I only use # 1 when towing and seems fine. Hope this helps.

I like it for ability to read the trucks functions. I do notice the diffreance in the shift points but not a hole lot for extra power.Instillation was some what technical, have to use your home computer to get it ready.overall its nice and useful, if i would buy another one id say maybe.Installed on a 2005 Escalade with 6.0 motor, Mileage 18 highway and 13-15 in town.I don't know what others are doing to get 20 mpg + This is my wife's daily driver, she drives it nicer then i do and she cant get better than 12 mpg this winter with it in town

I think it would eventually because once you feel how much quicker the truck will be with this boost in power, you won't want to baby it anymore. It really gets rid of that factory 7.3 sluggish feeling. Way faster throttle response and quick off the line.
