    My view on the waiting here and there is, I’m OTR, so no matter what I’m not going home at the end of my day. Whether I’m waiting at a customer, tank wash, etc. it’s the same as sitting at a truck stop. As long as I’ve had my shower and have food in my truck, taking my break at a truck stop isn’t going to enhance my life anymore than taking my break at a customer. It’s never affected my ability to get good miles so I’m my view it’s not a big deal.

    Well said. I sat at the truckstop next to my delivery for 10 hrs yesterday after only driving 3 hrs . With this current trip delivering Monday morning. Coming off home time on a Tuesday, I’ll still turn in 2,890 miles this week. The miles are here.

    It just depends on location, how busy they are, what kind of wash you are doing. It took me 1 1/2 hrs last night. It took me almost 7 hrs up in Washington a few weeks ago

    Yep. I left Mission on Monday, came out here, basically have all day to wash out and drive 322 miles. When I deliver Monday in Texas I’ll be around 3,300 for the week.

    I bought a Falcon F170HD+ a few weeks ago. Works great. Been using it for getting good scenery videos.

    You laid up in Vegas yet, livin high on the hog after your 3 days at the beach last weekend? I spent all day getting out of Cali. Just invented a parking spot at the truck stop here in Kingman. I’m taking home time next weekend.
