RVers and long-haul truck drivers are rejoicing. The firm announced on Tuesday that it is bringing its satellite internet service to moving vehicles. The Starlink service only allowed customers to get internet while parked. The benefit to users was that they were able to move locations as often as they wanted. Beginning in December, Starlink will be able to provide internet service to moving vehicles.

The new offering requires an upgrade to a $2,500 satellite dish instead of the standard $599 unit. Customers can restart their service at any time. The service works on any moving land object. Starlink uses a constellation of thousands of satellites to beam internet to customers. It's intended to bring high-speed internet to regions that don't have it.
