    I slacked off today,

    I still had -

    However, my average since my restart isn't anything to sneeze at

    So, for any newbies who wonder how to average miles like that with a 68 mph truck, it's a 2 step process

    Step 1 - keep left door closed
    Step 2 - keep right foot planted

    And waste very little time once you start your day

    Peelot in Temple, GA. I already had pork chops ready so all I had to do is toss a baking 'tater in the microwave and I had some spinach to go along with it.

    Are you sure you don’t want a new truck? The new 25’s have a fun and productive feature with the apu’s. After 10 hours they shut off and the menu to adjust that timer is locked out. ####ing bean counters. Like you have said before, Frog soup.

    I wonder if it was our management that made that decision, or We-lie's or worse yet, TFI's bean counters that did it.

    As often as I do 34's, that would suck having to restart the thing every 10 hours. Magnum's TK's did that. I'll make them a deal, if they put me in a new truck...I'll do 2 trips, 1 to the house to drop off my stuff and 1 trip to either Toledo or Wichita to drop off the truck. Or I will dick around every load and drive 2000 miles a week and never need a restart, plus make sure I fill my tanks every chance I get when in Cali, and Oregon and delete their fuel app. And NEVER fix a #### thing on their equipment... let a $100+/hour mechanic take hours to do what I could do in 10 minutes. I can dang sure be one of the least profitable drivers in the fleet.
