[QUOTE="ezrider, post: 57020"] When working right, the technology could maybe someday take some of the load off the mind of the driver. Unfortunately, as most of these posts would indicate, I'd say it's alot worse after a year and some change with EDD than before it got here. Misloads for some drivers reach into the dozens and much time lost having to search for pkgs that are not in truck yet DIAD states they should be there. Maybe 1 day out of 5 that a driver doesn't have to break off and make several meets with either shuttle cars or other drivers. That's just some of the back-end problems. The front-end headaches are even worse with way too many cooks spoiling the meal. Re-looping just for the sake of eliminating routes was just awful. Lots of redundant stops and wasted miles when there never had to be. I didn't expect much even when I first heard it was on it's way. But after all the hype and cheerleading it got from all the suits, it's just that much more of a dissapointment to be saddled with the mess that it's left a driver and his/her customers with.
