    No I speak for me. If you are an OO and need to "push the limits" then you are making me like elogs more. Not my fault you can't make money and run legal too. I can.

    We still seem to be struggling with the reading comprehension, and now we've added jumping to conclusions. Is every comment you make seeded in some need to make you feel good about yourself? "I don't see any impacts of the ELD mandate on an OOs business model." That would be a good, courteous, respectable response on this thread to describe your view on this subject.

    My reading comprehension reads that as, "if I need to work longer or drive longer, I can do that with paper"

    No you seem to have the problems. Not we. You haven't said you can't make money on elogs but you imply it. I'm stating that I can make money. That's all.

    No, what I said was, ELDs might remove an option that I use on the spot market, that has historically yielded the best profits for me. When you see these things "??" it's usually the words that precede those back to the last period, to which people are usually looking for replies.

    That's clear, we get it. You want to run illegal and make more money.
    Why not find a codriver and run the tight loads legally?
    Elogs are a coming because of drivers like you.

    So you imply that you had the option to make money on the spot market by running illigal? No I'm pretty sure I understood that the first time you said it.

    Hey I'm not DOT. You run owever you need to. I don't see how me as an OO effects me. But it may impact you. That's between you and the DOT. TBH I'm sorry you have to work that hard as an OO. I'm glad I do not. But I'm not trying to judge nor argue with you. I simply stated that I don't belive elogs hurt us. I'm sorry you do.
