Now that sounds better!! Looks like you figured out what was going on with the load(s) and seen you could make things work in your favor.
I think I just learned something from this.
If you have a load that you have say 3 days to get it there, and you can do it in a day, see if you can drop it for re-power close the the receiver, and see if there is another load you can pick up and keep rolling??? Is this right? -
Yes HD, that is exactly what you do.. now sometimes it works in your favor and you can utilize that extra time to get things done, ie; laundry, 34hr restart, or go home,,if you close enough..or just get some rest. I used this extra time to see some family that I haven't seen in a while.. Once of the reasons I picked USX is because the terminal is close to my house,,worked out this time. Enjoy your day brother and let me know when you get on your trainers truck.

Drive safe, and keep in touch. -
Well, it has been one of those days... I found out that my DriverTech is not seeing anything the truck does..in other words, it does not put me on line 3 when driving, does not put me on line 4 when stoped and it does not record the miles. It does no where I am at all times and GPS part of it works just fine.
I ended up driving 135 miles OOR today... Mind was not 100% phocused, and I did not right my fuel point down correctly.. I realized when I hit KY that I was to far north on I-75.. I drove 437 miles today and have 455 to go.. so that is 892-135=757 (707 paid)....mtnMoma Thanks this. -
Souns like a paper log thing until you make it to the shop?
-
Nah,,I have integrity so I made sure to put myself on the correct line everytime.. I will let my FM know tomorrow,,they will probably route me to a terminal... I even put the miles I drove on the notes line of my last input..
mtnMoma Thanks this. -
