    580 miles errr-day for about a year now. Piece of cake. But my record is well over that number, back in the old paper log days with a former employer:evil2:

    With e-logs the most I've been allowed to do was Tri-Cities, Washington to Salt Lake City, Utah for a smooth 630 miles with about an hour left. 67mph governed.

    I did that run back and fourth all week 6 times with nothing left on my 70. 3,780 miles and have only done that once.

    I'm jumping on a bid that's 415 miles a day 2pm-10pm Starting next month. It's not always about the miles. I'm excited to be getting a ton of time off and a mostly daytime run.

    I usually run about 250 or so on a good day. The best part of that is the actual route may take all of 20 or so of those miles. :)

    I should clarify, 360 on Wednesday, about 400 on Thursday and then max is 50 on Friday.
    Less than 1k per week.

    660 yesterday
    About 600 nearly every day until my 70 is gone.

    I love driving the southwest and getting paid for it.
    Sunrise and sunset.
    Desert scenery.
    No ghettos!

    The junk comment was for Union companies that get paid by the hour but drive trucks with no air ride and basically look like they should be taken out with the trash.
