What is the typical food budget for truck drivers on the road?

I've been using an accountant for about 5 years now, and I wouldn't go back to doing my own taxes. He charges me $185.00 for a joint return with itemized deductions. A lot of people like the big named (H+R Block etc.) tax services. I like my acct and he works all year long, so if I have a question, I just call him and he calls me back or one of his employees do.

A matter of personal preference.

I have my truck...@ Prime inc.

after 4 min of running the check & stop engine lights comes on then truck turns off....

Our trucks do that because the computer is set up that way.

The Company feels that if they don't have an "automatic" shut off, then we would let them idle all day..... We probably would
