how many miles a week are they getting with the lightweights?

Given 4 days down time, we are actually fairly happy with his progress.
Week 1: 915 (retrieval of abandoned truck, one trip back to Pittston for them to go over the truck)
Week 2: 2185 (ending w/ a 34 reset 60 miles from the house)
Week 3: 2808
Week 4: 1995 w/ the 4 days to go.
Also: He has lost a few hours driving time here and there when he got lost. I have been able to get him out of each of those situations, but what I can see on Google Maps, and what he can see on a CMV atlas aren't always the same. He's bringing me home one of those, so that I can help him with better information in MY toolbox. I help him plan his trips, find him WM to get his groceries, and keep his spirits up. He runs the traffic, makes the pickups and deliveries on time. He needs to learn to work his HOS a little better, but he is learning.DenaliDad Thanks this. -

Sorry about the confusion.Last edited: Nov 17, 2011

You have to remember you can't run 30 day a month. You have unloading and loading and you can only work 70 hours in 8 days. Thats were creative logging cames in. It's hard to do with elogs. -
"...by Tuesday" means by Nov 22, so one month from Oct 21. 9244 since Oct 21 + 1500 by Nov 22 = 10,744 miles.
Like I said, almost 11,000 miles. But if her numbers were wrong, as she said, so would mine.
