    Long haul won't pay you any more but you will get a chance to spend weekends in exotic locations all across America while doing your resets. And with the new hours of service this summer you will get even more time sitting in those exotic locations.

    That's dumb. What about drivers who run at night? They now have to sit for 60+ hours to complete a 34? My 34s are usually around 44 hours long when I do them now and I run between 8AM-8PM usually.
