    Sounds to me like he does.
    Why don't you get a little more experience before spouting off and let the grown folks talk. Close the mouth and open the ears and you just might learn something.

    Well, today I did 716mi in 10hrs & 52min. With an electronic log. Not interstate either, all secondary roads. Of course they are 70mph here in Texas :D.

    I run 354 miles 5 days a week. 356 if I take a different road for 30 miles. Take a nap for as long as I want. If I need more money the wife better be looking for a second job.

    Too many variables to give a straight answer to your question. Everything depends on the speed of the truck, and what region and speed limit zones that you are running in. Mountains and city driving put a real hurt on hours versus miles driven on any given day. Only put on your logs what the DOT gods need to see..............nothing more.
