Hmm.. Im still trying to figure out how to run 4300 miles in 70 hours with butt loads of stops..(solo) that averages 61 mph.. for 70 straight hours.. But not here for a pissing match ..just would like to know how to do it.. I can get 3400 a week..but have to have a reset to get my 70 back.. or not use reset and use what hours I gain back..LOL

 

This is about right.Ive stretched as much as 3500 in a week.After dealing with shippers,recievers,fueling,post trips,or anything else you have to log on duty,it cuts into your drive time during a 60 hour work week.Isnt that what you can work during 7 days.Sorry I use the 8 day 70 hr.Lets be generous and say you have 57 hours available to drive in a 7 day period.OR heck lets say 67 hrs w/a restart.4300 divided by 67 is 64.17 mph avg.and this is if you dont hjave to deal with any major traffic,city driving,mountain driving.Fat chance.On a 57 hr week it is,75.4 mph,not gonna happen.You supertruckers kill me.LMAO

 

Glad I'm not the only one who see a lil problem with the math.. I run my butt off.. and 3400 is about the best I can get..4300 in 70 hours on duty ..hmmm.. still wanna know how he does it!!.. I could use an extra 1000 miles a week

 

Ok.. I can see it done if and only if..you never stop for fuel food restroom shippers traffic receivers nothing and drive 63 mph never stopping or slowing..I could get 4365.9 miles... lol.. but we know that aint going to happen..
So please tell me how you do it?????
