General Update 02192011

A big hello to my friend TrucksM24 in England.  Just got in touch with him again yesterday on Yahoo's messenger, and he tells me how the truckchasing industry in England has really been  in a rut.  Seems the same could be said of truckchasing here in the U.S.
I asked him what he thought the culprit was.  I told him I thought it was technology and everyone's quicker access to information that could be used by and against truckers and their admirers.  He agreed along the same lines stating how because of GPS tracking and other more sophisticated real-time tracking systems, it's nearly impossible for drivers to veer off their routes or stay somewhere too long without dispatchers giving them grief about it.  Sad.
So there you have it, folks. What killed the truckchaser?  Technology!

While there's a lot to be said for cellphones, the internet, chatting, and even texting.  All those are great for setting up a meet.  Making it happen, it seems once again, is the bitch.
