    Not me.... but I'm beginning to figure this out... with these logs and so forth I took a 34 on this load because I had the time I hope to run hard as I go home in a few weeks for a week. I need yo nake enough to cover my HT Take Care.

    Well you do have a lot of drops. :biggrin_25525:

    I'm sure you'd get over 3k if you were doing D&H and single drop.

    Hey AT,

    I bet you wish you would've just gone home when they sent you to Conover huh? :biggrin_25523:

    Hopefully you'll be rolling soon if you're not already.

    Be safe out there.

    thats how i do mine, if you got a nice long time on a load and they wont take it early run hard enough to get a 34 hour break in before you drop...or time those weekends so you can get a 34 sunday instead of all the effort to find a load on the weekend.

    i just try not to run too hard, i dont like to drive more than 10 a day unless i have to. i have only put in a full 11 maybe 3 times? you keep those hours low and consistent you can get enough coming back to you each day to keep moving, the recap is your friend.
     
    wulfman75 and truckerdaddy24 Thank this.

    AT, you need to go to Walmart and either buy a pile of movies out of the $5 dollar bin, or invest in an XBOX so you can blow up stuff when you get bored. A game platform can definitely make the time go by. :yes2557:

    Purchased movies are nice because I can watch them on a flat screen using the XBOX, and you can swap movies with other drivers. I suppose a flat screen computer monitor would work too.

    I could lose an entire day gaming and never get bored, no problem.:biggrin_25525:

    you can go hdmi right to your flat screen from the computer, thats what i do. but trading could be useful with the limited bandwidth. but i just loaded up at home so i have tons to watch myself.
