I hit 19 hours last night, but only because there was a QC problem with my load, so I stayed at the shipper last night. I also try to start my say around 4 or 5 and get parked early. I start that early even when I don't have to just to keep the planners from getting me on night shift.

I like this thinking....Sounds like leaving home early the first day out is key to making sure that you stay pretty much on the same schedule.... -

I can usually get back on days pretty easy, my FM knows I have a solar powered truck and plans for it.

I had one week where, trying to launch out of Gary, I couldn't get my truck started till noon, and I was on noon-to-2am all week, it was probably one of my best weeks, mile-wise, because I kept picking up relays from drivers that ran out of hours. A while later, I did a week that was 0200-1600, I got a talking to about that, because I was pressing the planners to hard to get something "that fast." Normally, I would try to be on the 0400-1800 schedule.

Just to be sure, you know I was being sarcastic, right?
