So as far as extra board guys, when you lay down for the night to you clean your whole truck out or can you leave stuff like GPS/mounts/etc. in?
I thought I read sometimes terminals will grab a extra board drivers truck if one is needed? Which AFAIK my truck is technically assigned to me.

Lol. It's just too easy where I'm at and too flexible. I can call out 1 day a week for a month straight. Nothing happens. I can start anytime between 4 and 7pm. The nap time every night is the best part. In a brand new 2020 sleeper truck assigned to me. I'm lazy. It fits perfectly. Easiest job I ever had. Hell I'm not 100% sure I even wanna go to Dayton! If I need get stuff for the house I skip nap #1 and bobtail to Walmart grab what I need then I can go straight home in morning. This job has made me more lazy!
And no 055!!!Speed_Drums and dwells40 Thank this. -
I work the P&D side since I like to drive a solar powered truck. I’m curious on the extra board side though, do you guys somewhat get to make your own schedule? Like what if you just can’t sleep in the day to run the graveyard shift?

Central was not amused. From what I understand they starved him out.
YMMV and all that. You know how drivers talk...jtaran06 Thanks this. -
You get a start day. You start that same day every week. Its all night time on line haul. You may get lucky back your time up on occasion but when you lay down at a terminal that finishes up late it messes that up. Sometimes you lay down at 6am and they don't start you until 10pm. I have ran till noon before.
But days on extraboard is rare.Trucker61016 Thanks this. -
