    This is basics. The driver receives the load info. Pick up date/location, delivery date /location. As an example, 1500 mi run, 3 days to get there. It's July, so no snow to worry about. 3 days, so 500mi/day driving. Easy, right? You just need to plan afuel stop along the way. Now how about same load but in Jan routing thru Wy ? This requires a different plan. See My point ?

    Is the point that Wyoming sucks? Haha Couldn’t resist the border state jab.
    But point taken, makes sense. The other thing about Wyoming that I would want to be careful og is wind.

    I dont think he was saying Wyoming does or doesnt suck, but that state has got the crap beat out of them this winter, roads almost closed more often than not. Need to plan for possible weather delays

    When doing a road test I always ask if they want me to double clutch or not. Some of those you will interview with won't be able to shift to begin with, never drove a manual outside of thier initial training and some will expect you to be able to do with and without.

    Just to be clear ‘Wyoming sucking’ was an attempt at a joke. I actually really like that state
