    How much is too much?. I used to try calling whenever I got a load I didn't think I could deliver on time.

    In my defense I had only been solo for a couple weeks and had yet to learn that such loads were commonplace.

    I got back to Richmond at 5am and had to wait for a planner to get a load. For my patience and initiative I got a sweet 330 miler with 2 days to deliver. :rolleyes:

    Anyone have a route into halls warehouse in s. Plainfield that doesn't involve dragging tandems through front gardens?.

    My first and only time there Rand Mcnally was leading the way and those roads were really tight.

    I was sitting here feeling sorry for myself as far as mileage so I went back and checked miles driven since I got back to work on 6/30.

    2156 in 5 days. Some drivers for other companies struggle to break 2k in 7 days.

    Not too shabby.
