    Simple math. $2300/.50=4600 miles. 4600/7=657. 657/11=59.7 average mph. Calculator don't lie. Possible? Yeah. Likely? Maybe, but it would involve some ingenuity. And knowing how to work the clock to the fullest advantage

    And last I knew you can drive 11 hours in a shift? That's an extra 7 hours a week over your numbers.

    Either way, it's a bit of a stretch, and I don't care. But mathematically is possible.

    Well I guess 15 years behind the wheel doesn't make me a driver. ####! Guess I gotta try harder. Three years on elogs, in a 65mph truck too! I guess I didn't get my money's worth. I guarantee there's people out there that have no problems running 11 hours straight. Day after day.
