In Car Internet Coming This Year Via Chrysler, Check Out Truckblog
Chrysler have announced they will be offering In-Car Internet, beginning this year. "The feature will be added to existing vehicles by dealers beginning this year and later be installed on the assembly line" stated Chrysler's Product Development Chief, Frank Klegon. Chrysler also hopes to make the radio itself a WiFi port. The technology will not be free though, and will utilize mobile phone towers for its signal, so you will need a wireless phone carrier for the system to work. The new Internet option can be added to existing models and will be worked into the future assembly line soon. Now you have an excuse to check out Truckblog even more, and become an even greater traffic hazard! What happened to safety?

Friday Beerblog: Give Your Truck Wings With TruckShade
Beware, this product is patented. It's called TruckShade and guess what it does?...You guessed it, provides shade for the side of your truck. I would like to see this thing survive one trip in the desert or any climate where there is any amount of wind, watching it break off and scratching the bed sides of your truck. The TruckShade weighs less than 5 pounds, "super compact" (like a tampon?), "quick and easy to set up", and retails at only $87.97 (someone took an economics class) for long bed trucks and $79.97 for 6 1/2 foot bed trucks. It's also been chosen as Dirt Rider Magazine's "Personal Picks" for "2006 Product of the Year". Well in my opinion, I vote the TruckShade as Truckblog's "2007 Crap Product of the Year". If you do like this product, you can visit their rad website at www.truckshade.com. They're almost in competition for the 2007 Webby Awards, watch out Truckblog.

Sometimes I communicate with my friends through email or by phone, but rarely do I use Truckblog. That was until today when Jim at Full-Size Chevy blogged about Truckblog at his site. Full-Size Chevy is a massive Chevy truck enthusiast site that caters specifically to the (you guessed it) full size trucks manufactured by Chevy and GMC.

The forums area is very active, and there's even a member gallery if you'd like to check out other member's rides or post your own pics. Jim also hooked up a blog to allow him to cover the latest industry news and well, talk about Truckblog! So if you haven't seen FSC yet, y'all best get on over to FullSizeChevy.com and get your bowtie on.

The Ballers Journal
More in: Reviews | Comments | Permalink | 27,457 Views

When Jake and I aren't somehow involved with the physical world of trucks, we are spending most of our time in the virtual world of trucks--that being the web. There are so many incredible truck websites out there that we figured we would honor their online accomplishments by starting a weekly department called "Truckblog Site Of The Week". We wanted to go with our "Whateverblog" naming convention like our Friday "Beerblog", and "Truckblog" is already taken (ha!) and "Siteblog" just sounds stupid. So since Jake is off shooting a feature for the site and I haven't been able to come up with something different, here is our first "Truckblog Site Of The Week" (feel free to hit "Comments" and make a suggestion for something better!)

Our first award goes to...

The Baller's Journal

(5/5)

After careful review of our favorites (which will be in the spotlight in the near future), we agreed that "The Baller's Journal" was the clear winner of our first award. Why? It is not your normal enthusiast website... in fact it's not like anything else we have ever seen on the web. While this isn't a 100% dedicated truck site, the majority of the vehicles featured are trucks.
