    Getting a load with enough time on it. I can choose to run hard, or run 300-400 miles and shut down.
    Clean bathrooms
    Clean showers

    Go hard always! Get you used to the ones when you have to go hard. If I have to wait for an appointment (I don't usually, flatbed) it's nice to be able to shutdown close to the drop.

    Anyway. I like getting loaded/unloaded quickly and showers. I'm easy.

    How about those beautiful "Watercolour" skies over the southwest, ahhhh we really do have a cool job. I spent 20+ years in offices with gray cubicle walls so I appreciate the visuals we have...

    When you can run all week and not have a truck problem
    When your dispatcher only calls for the next load to be picked up
    When you shut down for the night and have complete silence outside
