I'm not sure. That's a good question.

 

Yep that's the plan. I set 2 alarms 10 minutes apart, if I accidentally turn the first one off instead of hitting snooze the second one will catch me. The first one is nice, it starts quiet and gradually gets louder, the second one will wake the dead lol

 

My dad been retired now for 4yrs and he just this past month finally slept in past 0530 lol. Guess 28yrs driving it takes awhile to break it lol

And ya 4 or 5hrs when on the road and i can knock out 11hr driving day no problem. Students are always asking me wtf is wrong with me lol. Sleep 3 hrs get up drive 5 then they wake up drive 11 and I'm still functioning normal lol

 

I wake up before my alarm quite often. I can't get by on 4 or 5 hours but often do 6 to 6 1/2 hours. I prefer sleep in day every few days and by that I mean 7 to 8 hours. Some times I catch it with a load I get or I just get to sleep soon after stopping for the day.

I like starting early and ending early. Less traffic and time wasting back ups or idiot drivers early in the morning. And because I start early I stop early enough that parking usually isn't a problem.

 

I don't like running super early but not late either. I prefer getting up around 4 and rolling by 5, and if I'm sitting empty and waiting for a load and I haven't gotten anything by 8 I'm usually starting to get cranky.

The load I took home delivers in Ridgeway at 11 so I'll have to be rolling by 4 in order to get it down there on time. That won't be awful but I really hate when I have to get up at like midnight or 1. Although... The anxiety of trying to find parking is pretty much non-existent when I'm ending my driving day at 1 or 2 p.m. so I can definitely understand why a lot of you guys prefer to run like that.

 

I drove from Ohio to Georgia for Memorial day weekend, I remember seeing TWELVE speed traps in Ohio, and once I was out of Ohio all the way to my Dad's house in Cartersville I saw maybe another 2 or 3 cops. Twelve in Ohio, it was nuts
