Paper logs tips?

I wanna know where the truckstop with the maidens is located.

 

The iron maidens bus is parked at t/a tonopah az...If you like long haired british senior citizen types!

 

How does this save on the IFTA. The gallons they don't record, they pay at the pump the fuel tax but get no credit for tax paid. I can see how it would allow to move drive time. Wouldn't it be cheaper to get a bigger fuel tank or get another fuel tank. Well, less risk of getting caught in a paper trail. Expensive paper trail.
edit: refer fuel. no tax

 

I tell drivers to do this all the time: Call your company and ask them what is the AVERAGE gross of their drivers. Then ask them what does the TOP driver gross. The drivers on top will make 1.5-2x average gross. Across the board at every company. Some of us will not settle for 'average.'

 

maximizing your logbook

 

Agree! In my opinion there are several types of truck drivers:

1. Super Truck drivers (I will never qualify and don't even want to - over 4000 miles a week every week)
2. Real Truck Drivers (respecting most of laws, constantly driving 3000 to 3800 miles a week then those miles are available)
3. Big company drivers (schneider, CR-eng and so on 2000-2200 miles a week)
4. RV-ers (I do not mean they pull an RV but they seem on like they are on vacation driving from 100 to 250 miles a day).
5. New drivers (They will make their way in one of the above)

To be honest with you 3000 to 3800 miles a week at 55-60 cents a mile is very honest, and in my opinion logbook rues are made to not really go above that!

As a driver you clear above 1600 a week without any expenses! Different story for OO

 

1. Supertrucker- Any driver that tries to win every pissing match. He's run more miles than anyone else, been driving longer, has a mansion is some exotic location, 55 years old fat and out of shape but employed as a Sniper for Uncle Sam. Easily identified, because in the first 5 minutes at the lunch counter, he starts volunteering employment history.
2. Driver- A driver can drive anything anywhere. Real simple: Either you can drive or you cant. If it has wheels and a transmission, a driver can figure it out and drive the thing.
3. FearMonger- A cowardly person that tells horror stories so that he doesn't have to be scared all by himself. "I'm not leaving the parkinglot. There's a hurricane coming towards the USA. Be afraid. Be very afraid! I think I rather stay in Milwaukee until it's over!"
4. Steeringwheelholder- A brain dead driver. That guy who called the locksmith because he cant find his keys to get out of the truck. That driver making a U-turn on the interstate. That driver who forgets he's pulling a trailer. That guy who forgets to set his brakes before he gets out of the truck.
5. Trucker- a driver with seemingly superhuman powers. Dispatcher wants to know how, but then change their mind, "You're empty? How...? Nevermind! I don't want to know!"

 

You just said what I wanted to say but with different words! Looking at the avatar you are the devil of the truck drivers Or just the devil?

 

I like number 2! Engine does not matter! You can move a truck on starter only! wheels and transmission! Imagine a truck moving just because it has air in the tanks!
