    It's very easy if you can use full 11 hours and have truck stop sitting right there.

    Only on Tx HOS. I actually think I could knock out 800 if I ran the whole 12hrs without hitting traffic or other slow downs.

    600 can be done if the truck speed is high enough(plus other factors coming into play-Road/traffic conditions & terrain). My truck is governed at 65,although the Passmart allows me 67 for 30 minutes. A few times I’ve gone 660 miles on average. My personal best was 720 miles
     
    alds Thanks this.

    Every Wednesday ... LHC, AZ to Bliss, ID right close to exactly 700 miles. Usually have about 15 minutes left on the clock. Not in a slow truck, am mentally old and do not push the speed limit.
     
    DAX_ and HillbillyDeluxeTruck Thank this.

    I'm governed at 67 mph. I average about 680 to 690 most days. But I have gotten as much as 729. The most usual distance over 700 for me is 709... There are 2 places I park on I-80 that are that far apart and if weather is good and I keep my foot in it all day I can make it with about 5 mins left on my 11 hour clock.

    With the help of the 150 mile radius Ag. Exemption I have legally logged 992 miles in one shift on ELDs.
