Well, my first 2 weeks running solo are over and I am at home. I ran almost 5,500 miles in just over 2 weeks out. I managed my time carefully, and did not need to take a 34hr reset. So far, the planners have kept me hopping which is exactly what I want.
The volvo has worked flawlessly so far, and I am quite pleased with it overall. The thing I like most is that the interior is so much quieter than the freightliners that I had become accustomed to.
I was planning to go back to work on Thursday morning. Unfortunately, the overnight low tomorrow night is supposed to drop into the single digits above zero. It looks like I get to spend my last night of hometime sleeping in the truck! I would rather do that than take the chance on waiting for xx hours in the morning for a jumpstart.
