How many miles per day

i don't even think you can do THAT in 11 technically. unless maybe in texas where the speed is 80 and the ground is flat.

however. in a 24 hour day yes. because your actually driving 13 hours in that timeframe. if your on one of them cross country loads.

but i guess that all depends on having an ungoverend truck and plenty of power for the hills.

i'll say this. i've had some pissed off brokers becuase this one man truck can't deliver there team runs in the timeframe they designate.

700 miles a day. and even that's stretching it in the mountains. so you do the math.

 

Thats why I carefully chose the word 'attest'. Because if I knew then I could 'attest' to more.

Anything is possible. Hell why do you think God gave men tits.

 

719 today. From Three Forks, Montana to Valley City, North Dakota. Legally. Just saying.

 

I did 717 miles legally in 10.75. Shreveport, LA to Marshall, IL stopped for fuel and some food in Hayti, MO. Adv Speed 66.7 MPH.. This is common for me If I have a full day to drive I will DRIVE it all..

 

You can do that just as long as you don't eat the chicken fried steak at the flying Hook in Belgrade! lol

Back in 04 I made that mistake on a load going the other direction, oh god I have never been so sick in all my life. Load was going to Ellensburg Wa, god those were some of the hardest fought miles I have ever traveled.

 

Duly noted On the chicken fried steak in Belgrade!

 

I don't understand how these guys are getting those miles. I guess there isn't any road consruction in those areas. Seems up here in the northeast you can't go 15 miles without slowing down to 55 for 20 miles in a strech for paving or litter patrol.

 

Its called cheating logs.
Using the calculator and odometer instead of a watch don'cha know?

Being on ELogs has taught me 100% of non elog trucks cheat and do it naturally that they don't even know.
I don't blame any of them , I just wish I could still do it too.
Don't hate the player , hate the game.

 

Could have done 705 today if I wanted to overnight at a facility-less roadside truck parking lot, but I opted for the truck stop 20 miles shy so I could shower... 65mph governed truck, 1 fuel/rest stop ~4 hours in, 1 restroom break 4hrs later. 3 construction zones totalling maybe 15 miles (2 45mph, 1 55mph).

If my truck did 75, I could easily do another 50+ miles/day

I've found that if I just sip water all day I don't need to pee all the time like you do when drinking soft drinks, coffee, or energy drinks.
