Is there such a place (a be-all and end-all store for truckers)?

I admit I like my gadgets and toys. But I'm not the type of person that buys on impulse, or goes to the nearest store and buys something just because the sells person recommends it. I like to compare specs, read reviews and deiced best fits my needs for my budget. So what if you think my combination tire gauge/flashlight/toothbrush, is a waste of money. I might think your duffel bag that doubles as a flotation device isn't very practical on a tuck, even if you keep having a dream about a collapsing bridge.

Where do you go if your looking to compare CB's, Coolers, etc to make a purchasing decision?

Doubles:

Refers to pulling two trailers at the same time, otherwise known as "pups" or "pup trailers" because they're only about 28 feet long. However there are some states that allow doubles that are each 48 feet in length.

Dm:

Dispatcher, Fleet Manager, Driver Manager

The primary person a driver communicates with at his/her company. A dispatcher can play many roles, depending on the company's structure. Dispatchers may assign freight, file requests for home time, relay messages between the driver and management, inform customer service of any delays, change appointment times, and report information to the load planners.

I usually start with Amazon or Walmart.com. Amazons reviews are usually my go by, been an Amazoner for several years. Love the site, and with my Prime membership, free 2 day shipping and free returns on practically every item I buy
