Weeble Kneeble Thanks this.

That's good to hear that it's more of a guideline than a rule of thumb and that they are flexible with it. My current company is the same way. Take off what you need within reason, or in my case, as much time as I can afford.

10/4 that was a big reason why i left last carrier, 4i8hrs and u had to be back in truck. A nd u couldnt take it home. They would count ur drive time to and from home as time off. some guys drove 100 miles each way. if u got out of ur truck at i8pm that sucked. Lousy quality of home time.
Just outside twin cities, snowing out. Supposed to get 2-4"! Its may! Enough with winter! -
that's it basically within reason your FM will work with you like I said I stay out for a 5 weeks then take off 7 full days my choice this company has its problems but overall its a pretty good company as long as you do ur job they have no beef with u

I love working for HEYL. I am in the Tropicana bradenton fleet but get out every now and then and Adam my DM is always on his game and I have no complaint whatsoever..Should of come here a long time ago

Just about to find out if these guys will hire me for a fifth time! Lol Only once did I quit because my dm was a drunk and a moron and told me that I couldn't go home when I planned to. They fired him shortly after. Never had a problem with them as a company, just different family moves (last move to Australia in 2011) and getting bored long hauling. Overall, I have ten years in with them, and it sounds like they are still the same company I remember, except the fuel routing thing. Well, now that I remember, they tried that back in '98, but no one would follow the routes or fuel stops, so they gave up on it. Anyway, here's hoping I'm rolling again soon in my black truck.

Odds of getting a double bunk would be slim wouldn't it? Not a teamer, just like to have the wife along for company.
-
unless your a team driver odds are slim you can ask and it depends on whats available at the time if you do get a double it would most likley be a volvo as the cascadias are very few the new cascadias have a alot more storage they utilized the back area over the bunk with little cabinets and a mid roof is okay i had a fridge and mic (on top of each other) but it worked and still had space to walk
