I know mega carriers exaggerate in their ads but this seems a little over the top.

Define 'way too much'.

When I get done driving I like to watch a couple shows as I'm cooking and eating dinner.

I'm not out here to kill myself trying to get the most miles. I'm out here to earn a living, and live.
In fact, I live out here. I like some time to myself each day.

I also don't like doing 34 hour resets, so I average my hours so I can keep running.
That means I have time each day to enjoy something.

 

That's a good post. Not suppose to pop pills anymore to stay awake.I know a man that has 3 million safe miles and he says to be completely dedicated to the job, and plan, plan, plan your trip.

 

This has me thinking.
