Running with JCT, Part Deux

Guess the next step is pay only 99cents a gallon you follow our route.

Being sarcastic.

 

Well, finally got the scangauge working, but the hardest part of doing this was the above message. Once I got that through my thick head, I started to see improvements in my check.

 

Take it a step further...

"Drivers who follow the suggested fuel routing will see a bonus of 5 cents per mile "....

 

What's your speed sweet spot?

 

I'm not sure if it's the same one or not. I know I don't care for it if it's the same one. Very vague and incomplete in my opinion. Will have to see when i get my next load if it's the same program that I was on. I hope not.....

 

63mph. I go 58mph if I'm in a strong headwind. I see other JCT drivers blowing my doors off in the hammer lane all the time.

 

Snowville, Ut to Limon, Co. 688.3 miles according to QC. 12 minutes left on drive line. Worth every minute to on the outer edge of snow from the approaching winter storm that's gonna dump a lot of snow on Denver and Cheyenne.

I was running with another driver, but he stopped at a truck stop at exit 292 on 80 in Wyoming. He knew what coming and I tried to tell him we need to get as far as possible today. But, you can't tell some guys anything.

His break will be done during the worst of the storm. Told him there was no guarantee that he will be able to roll when he wants. But, oh well, I continued on and made it to exactly where I wanted to be at.

 

I 40 west bound from the top of Flaggstaff, running at 17.4 MPG thru Arizona. Gotta love this 30 mph tailwind

 

Of course that will disappear fast as I climb the hills of New Mexico, but still, the BEST I've ever gotten.

Feel sorry for those heading west right now. LOL

 

Where you heading to @Steel Tiger? I am heading to Clarksville, AR. Will be passing through the yard on Sunday.
