You know that purple zzquil is alcohol content. It's very helpful in getting to sleep.
I run old style braindead computer games until my brain just quits working but most of the time as often as not, I'll keep on trucking through the night. It matters not to me day or night anymore.
Anyone else?

I'm just now waking up. I needed this sleep.
G13Tomcat Thanks this. -
I never really had much of a problem with sleeping. On those times I had a problem I got still and played mind games. One of my favorites was building furniture. Sawing the wood and using the lathe to build legs. After a while I was asleep. As I have gotten older get me still long enough and I am dead to the world. Its called having diesel in your blood!

I seem to be better now.
I'm caught up on sleep and sleeping is a little better. I go through runs where I just can't sleep. Lasts awhile sometimes -
I had that problem last night. Unfortunately that's what happens when you work 14 hours as a local driver.
x1Heavy, G13Tomcat and Boattlebot Thank this. -
I couldn't do local work.
I've driven a day cab exactly once. For 10 min. Won't happen again -
Happens to me often. Driving nights, get home when the wife is getting kids ready for school, and sometimes all the kerfuffle even though I'm upstairs.... just can't put'r' down.x1Heavy Thanks this.

One of our Pete's actually IS a daycab, but the boss drives her, LoL. I get the 379 / sleeper, in case I get stranded or laid over *hasn't happened yet* ... so he wouldn't have to pay for a hotel, LoL! Seriously, I enjoyed driving the daycab the few times I did. She's an ole' '84 ten speed;
kinda rough, but he keeps all our stuff in great (as possible) condition, inside and out.

I'm just used to the longer base of the sleeper tractors, myself. Not picky, however. I'm flexible. As long as they have the ballz to pull my tank, I'm happy! -
I'm the opposite. Spent my entire career as a local driver (routes varying from 80-400 miles a day), and about 90% of that time in a two axle daycab. I can't imagine doing anything else.G13Tomcat and Boattlebot Thank this.

Is it just me or do 379s just not look right without a sleeper?
