    wow, you sound like Kramer in that Seinfeld episode where he tried out a new car and then wanted to see how far it would go on a tank of gas.

    TY! I needed a laugh today, this was awesome. I wuv this.

    I am not kramer nor do I watch that show much. But thank you, I really appreciated the humor. I would too go see how far it will go on a tank of gas.

    In fact, my two first cars my father would tell you half the time I was on vapor. One of them would stumble on a particular left turn starving the fuel pipe at the tank at 6 miles to empty. Gas station at that time was a couple hundred yards away downhill so with a careful tracking of miles I would get about 476 miles out of 10.5 gallons (1.20 a gallon back then...)

    310 per day m-f. 3 hours or less on the dock. Love it. Unfortunately it won’t last too much longer since the guy on this run has been off sick for a couple months and that’s why I’m on it. Kind of hope he retires.

    Mine varies but up to 635 miles in a day with multiple stops, governed truck at 65. The first three days this week have been 600 each day, tomorrow is about 500 and who knows what Friday will be.

    1100 miles is quite possible with an ungoverned truck after a good nap.
     
    alds, Oxbow and Steel Dragon Thank this.

    At least nobody tried to black out some of the lines on the freeway in the name of creating “nice wide lanes”. :laughing-guffaw:
