    Im usually starting my day between 3 and 5am. This usually means I am asleep by 7pm every night. What time do you guys usually get up and roll? Ill get up, brush the teeth and go to the bathroom, get a drink and drive 5-6 hours until i stop for more drink and more br time. I like to take a shower at night after I fuel so Im ready to just roll in the morning.

    I'm also an early bird....especially since I've gotten a little older. I don't mind driving in the dark when there's not much traffic, but evenings bother me more then they used to because of the headlights, glare, and reflections.

    I like to shut down by 5PM when possible.

    Well it's always been load dependent for me. I will run when i have the freight and miles but try my best to be stopped by 2am. Now as i said it's freight dependent so i run when it'savailable. Now at home it's 5am or so feed animals then breakfast then whatever until wife and daughter get home then it's cook supper and chill then usually try and be in bed by midnight.
