CR England - The real story

I have done 3700+ in a week , but the next week is short because I either have to take a restart or swap the load.

 

that is the only bad part about runnin that many miles then being short the next week

 

well everyother week you could but not every week no not unless ya held on to trip packs to keep on trucking

 

Listen you could easily run 4,000 miles in a week and not have much of a drop off the next week (without too much log book manipulation) 600miles a 10hr day times 7 days is enough with time left over to manipulate into a 34hR restart. I agree it is hard but not that bad to do.

 

not in a company truck 528 miles is the most you can log with england. they way they say it is if your truck is governed at 62mph you can log 57mph. you have to log 5 mph under your governed speed. otherwise youll be getting log violations

 

Well the most miles I have done is 645 (it took 10 hrs 56 minutes) with the electronic logs. Now since its construction season, my minutes are gettin eaten up with construction delays. My truck goes 62 tho. I'm getting it turned up to 68. I will run # 63, but at least I can pass people without it taking 5 miles to do so.

 

NOT with electronic logs, which I have, as do many others, and as will everyone by the end of the year...so we can quit with the "what if" fantasy math.

Electronic logging costs you money, I guarantee it.

 

"I'm getting it turned up to 68"

This is one of the reasons I'll be suing England. Can you explain how this will happen?

 

Ok i concede lol

 

I tuned into this thread because CRE is one of the few hiring L/O. I would maybe do that, due to circumstances I won't go into, so I wanted to know. Appreciate your input, Ronin, and some others, even those who called you a liar.

I did want to note the difference between a CB and a forum thread. You can shut off a CB when someone on 19 just blathers all the way across Texas, but on a forum, that same guy can just run his mouth until nothing but meaningless sounds come out. So here, you learn to just skip even trying to read those posts. Takes about half the time to read all the cogent information without trying to sift through those others for anything useful.

Thanks guys. pretty much figure to average around $500 a week running hard, if all goes well. Got it. Not sure I would go for it. All I needed to know. Brevity and concision. Love that.
