The odds are in favor of the house

34 hour reset in Front Royal, VA, deadhead to Strasburg, VA for a loaded trailer.
Loaded from Strasburg, VA to Poway, CA, San Diego, CA, Fremont, CA, Pleasant Grove, CA with an unscheduled stop in Roseville, CA

Deadheaded to Fresno and picked up, met a driver in Modesto and swapped trailers and dropped in Boise, ID. Yeah. 7 days.

 

I see....Roseville, Modesto.......can't bother to let Otter and Significant Otter take you to dinner!

I see how ya roll......sheesh!!!

 

Oh I would have, but I was on a roll, lol

 

I dont believe you. I believe the trips all got paid in one pay period. What im not beleiving is it was completed in 7 days. More like 9.

There is about 1600 miles on your trip just in california and oregon. Cities in california include the sd metro area. LA and part of the inland empire. The Bay area and sacramento. Just running those numbers not including running surface streets and logged times for pickups/deliveries along with pre and postrip time, I can account for 30 hours minimum with absolutely no delays.

Little delays like climbing Doner Pass. Your choice of 101 out of LA through Ventura, thats always an easy drive.. or do you climb through Tejon Pass and crawl down Grapevine. Lest I forget, I havent been across 8 since 1998 but I seem to recall a pleasant little hill east of Coyote Wells.

 

I left on Friday morning from Front Royal and stopped at Jackson, TN-723 miles
Second day was Jackson, TN to Shamrock, TX-718
3rd day was shamrock, TX to the rest area on 17 near Sedona, AZ 743
4th day was Sedona, AZ to Poway, CA
5th day was Poway to San Diego to Fremont, CA
6th day was Fremont to Pleasant Grove to Roseville, CA and then to Fresno, CA. 7th day was Fresno to Modesto to Caldwell, ID where I dropped the trailer.

You don't need to believe me, it doesn't matter. I know what I can do and what I did. It's not that hard.

 

I

I don't log p/u and del because I usually stay the night at the facilities if I can. All of my drops had parking, except for Pleasant Grove which I didn't need anyway.

 

Better get a map out! San Diego to Bay Area is 482 miles. Bay to Roseville 85 miles, down to Modesto 97 miles, and Fresno again 88 miles. Fresno up to Reno, 284 miles, Reno to Boise 424. Oregon is only about 100 miles of non-patroled road...we do 60 there. Why would he come across the 8 from the east coast? Poway is south of Escondido, north of San Diego on the 15....come across I-40 to the I-15 and south. Up the I-5....where do you get 1600 miles in CA and OR?

If you can account for 30 hours doing this....well maybe you aren't cut out to be a L/P let alone an O/O!

 

I know I'm a hard worker. I know that if I were to own a truck I would be successful, it's just not worth the risk to me. I also know that it's near impossible to beat the lease purchase game.

 

IP was probably the must truthful L/O and even he admitted it was a hard game to play, and He ran hard. Now that He's done he really has nothing good to say about his carrier.

 

Why does he need to prove anything to you? Did you map quest or Google maps his starting and ending points to figure out the hours it would take? Apparently not. Not to hard to figure out its doable in 7 days... Some drivers actually get out on the big road and get it done...
