Conway Truckload Drivers what is your 20?

"did 678 mi yesterday in 11 hrs including ATL 5pm rush hour.." Nice. I did a 679 once, long day and Interstates all the way, no Atlanta tie up but some in Des Moines. I'm going to get 680 some day, but I think that's about it in a 64mph T660. Made a little money that day, didn't we?

 

Have any of you folks done the Thomas and bettes run out of byhalia ms to fed ex in salt lake city? Mon delivery but I'll be there Sunday...just wanted to know if I can drop early dispatch is no help.thanks

 

I havent done that run, but I'd try delivering early. UPS, Fed Ex, & Con-Way Freight all almost always welcome early drops (though occassionally there won't be an empty)

 

At home sitting on the board number 39 for the Joplin hopefully i can be out of here come monday morning

 

Still at home ...trucks in dealer ....bunch of recalls on the pro pooper ...maybe Monday ill be back

 

Nice that you have an international dealer near home...

 

Ug, unloading in muskogee now -- I assume that is within Joplin local's range?

 

Where in Muskogee are you delivering too, I use to live there

 

The GP plant. Thankfully, I'm #1 on the "Coastal" board instead of 40-something on the Joplin board... Dozing in the sleeper until 8 hours have elapsed before PCing to the pilot. Probably won't get a load until Monday anyway, but I like having hours available to drive at any given moment (when possible).

edit: assigned new load picking up at GP tomorrow - 4 hours shy of a reset. Then I have 52 hours until my fixed appointment 24 hours away (6 hours shy of reset). At least I have decent hours for running recap, but I'd much prefer a fresh 70 & the flexibility to drive 52-55 for better mpg...

 

on hometime/tulsa, back tomorrow. Found out a little trick on the KW 660. Set cruise at 65, then turn on the Jake, too. Jake will kick in on hills at 72-3 mph, and hold you back. Must keep your foot off da gas tho when doing this, or Jake won't react.(and you WILL hit 74+ quickly)) One only wants to do this on 75 mph Hy's, of course.

Found it in the KW manual.
