    At least there are still people out there that know how to use the brain
    God gave them and not be hard headed and believe that they are right
    no matter what anyone says.

    good lord my family would starve on 500 miles a day. I've more then doubled that on occasion. My normal day out west is 850 to 900

    I'm the same way MM, when I get a load to Cali or up in the NE I will usually
    run around 850 a day to get the trip over and done.

    I did 720 miles the other day in a 65mph truck. Of course I was already rolling at midnight, tossed in my 10 hour break and then ran for 10hrs 45min.

    I log over 700 miles, sometimes well over, on a routine 11 hour shift. This despite the fact that I usually only drive 59 or 60 mph. Sometimes I feel "froggy" and step it up to 62 or 63.

    On the rare occasion that I have a load going by the house, well, just stay the heck outta my way cuz I probably got it wound up to about 80 or 85.:biggrin_2559: Honestly, that is very rare though.lol

    No offense but that kind of pay sounds like you work for a relative. I have been out here awhile and making 700 bucks for 800 miles is a little out there unless you are an owner operator. Joe

    Plus home most every night. MMM sounds a little fishy to me or I am not understanding you. I can do 700 in a day, but that dosent get me home much...unless its 350 out and back. This guy pays you to dead head back home empty. I curious at what PSI does the air warning horn come on in those trucks?
