max legal miles

You need stirrups to ride @G.Anthony .

 

If I was smart, I'd have gone into photography. Probably better money too.

 

And this kind of logging is why we have a 14 hr clock,right ?

 

What he described is perfectly legal.

 

My best is around 4200mi in a week. Mostly legal depending on your perspective.

I run at night as much as possible. No traffic, TS not as busy, weight stations are closed more often.

If you plan your trip right. Know where you're going to stop for each break, have a good truck that's properly inspected and drive fast or at least average above 65 minimum, why not?

I pulled 780mi in one shift. No BS, No Falsification.

 

If you're on the flat lands with few hills I can believe that. I regularly commute about that kind of mileage in my pickup and I can do it in about 11 hours if it all goes good and only driving about 7 or 8 km/h over the limit.

 

Speed Average is the number one factor in your milage capabilities per shift/week.

Yep, it was a drop/hook round trip Blythe to ATL. I felt a sense of pride ......and fatigue.

I must add that I drove from Ontario to Blythe and then did the round trip to ATL. Got back to blythe with 2.25 left on my week. It was worth it

 

In my car I once made it from my home in Las Cruces, NM to Albuquerque, NM, a distance of about 220 miles, in less than 3 hours....including pee breaks.

 

Oh yea, there is a soda in the picture...didn't notice until someone mentioned it.

 

Tell me about it. When I'm commuting up to work, I just go. Stop twice for fuel and coffee then back on the road. I jump out of my pickup and my legs vibrate for the next 2 hours lol.
