Most miles driven in One day ?

And they say you can't cheat an elog...#### gooberment needs to stay out of trucking and just let us drive

 

Yep.

 

Most on my Elog that we cannot cheat was 711. Springfield, Missouri to Wausau, Wisconsin. Had three minutes drive time left when I pulled into the terminal.

 

All's I can say is OK to MI. in one day.

Took a shower in IL Springfield.

They wanted me to pick up a student in AR for a lift to Detroit, I said "No".

My advice would be to stay away from any immigrant run Chicago outfit. MGR is no exception. You'll be expected to run illegal and they'll screw you over one way or another.

 

How many miles you can run depends on traffic, if your running legal, if you take stops, if you wasted your 14 getting loaded or unloaded, etc. I aim to hot 600/day when the load allows. I hit 760 legally one day, (on eobr) but i was driving 70 all day in 70 and 75 zones. I got to the receiver with 3 min left on my clock. needless to say, I could not drive after unload and slept there. that was a long day and i only got 4.5 mpg. BUT, the load paid great and was very hot, so it was worth it. Lukily I hit no traffic, and stopped only once at a rest area. My truck didn't like running 70 all day though. Luckily I got 480 gallons of fuel on board when full so I dont need fuel stops.

I hit 650 a few times a week and try to cruise at 60 - 65 to save on fuel depending on weight.
