I was under the impression nobody would take a second look at 62 MPH as long a truck and speed limit allow. If you were running a 6/7 day, 10 hour schedule that would give you 620 miles a day. If you run 11 hour days with a reset that would give you 682 miles a day.

I regularly logged well over 600 miles a day in a 63 mph truck, sometimes as much as 670 miles, and the DOT never said a word about my logs.

...just wait until there is some sort of incident involving you or one of your co-workers and the DOT auditors and the plaintiff's lawyers get a look at those logs. Logging 65 mph in a truck governed at 62 is falsification of the logs, and that usually carries a pretty hefty penalty. -
I regularly run 500+ a day with eLog proof..

-
I average 50 mph...most days are at 550 miles
-
Best day was 600, but that was 11 in the seat. All WA state and light loads that day.
-
300-650 depending on the day
-
Usually ten, I have had a few days where I have driven two different trucks, made 4 deliveries and log 1 kilometer.
