TLap21 Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 I use Pitaka vent mag-mount and drive a Tundra and it's never fallen off in 2 years. Plus it's a high speed wireless charger as well. Worth a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flylikabird Posted December 6, 2019 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 Sounds good guys. I'll look at your suggestions. Had my first round trip run of several stops this afternoon and didn't have a problem with the mount or phone. I re-positioned the mount to suction at my lower left hand side of my windshield which I like from a drivers perspective but hope it doesn't bounce out the window during the Summer. This probably shouldn't happen because my semi new truck has a decent AC unit....and you know I just put the kibosh on that just now.

MakoMike Posted December 7, 2019 Report Share Posted December 7, 2019 I'm lucky, my truck has apple play, so I just throw the phon in the console and use the dash screen to control it. ====Mako Mike====Makomania SportfishingPt. Judith, RI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Implement it in such a way that if you can't overcome this failure you simply can't drive....young or old. Looks like we found ourselves a pro drive and txter.

I actually think a multitasking test is really practical. Driving isn’t a single task. It’s a learned multitasking operation. Operating the pedals, steering wheel, blinkers, wipers, lights, etc. The driving test doesn’t account for things like using gps, adjusting the radio, setting cruise control, operating blue tooth, etc. There’s a lot more to every day driving these days than just keeping the car between the lines and using your signal. b-ware and Peter D 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget about shifting gears (up to 18 in some trucks) when and when not to use the clutch and of course the Jake Brake...……………… I have spent a considerable amount of time commercially driving trucks of all sorts and a lot of that time I was on the CB radio, is that different than a cell phone?????
