    90 miles in 3 hour's. Good thing this load paid hourly with a 4 hour min. It was a very short day but the week has only began.

    This is one aspect of trucking that really gets me... guilty until proven innocent.
    Ten hours? Is that because troopers and scalemasters can't divide by 11? :biggrin_25523:

    At any rate, aside form it not being terribly difficult to do... without speeding... idiotic rules and interpretations like this are why I vary my stops. I rarely stop near borders, eg., if I'm heading back to Canada with a load of produce, I don't stop at Sparks, NV, I'll stop at Fernley, or Winnemucca, don't always stop at the same T/S and so on.

    673 yesterday
    641 today

    Both in about 10.75 hours in a 65 mph truck and elogs. The elog actually helps. It consistently runs about 30 minutes behind the moving average on my GPS. I believe that is because of the time it takes to to automatically go from off duty/on duty to driving when I start out. It pretty much takes the stop and go of getting out of a truck stop and back onto an interstate out of the equation.

    Generally about 8 inches first thing in the morning, depending on width.

    Or were you talking about different logs?
