    I'm sure he was sleeping a whole two hours each night. That's just brutal. I did hear a guy brag on the CB once that he drove 2,000 miles straight.

    I do 4000 miles in a month if I'm lucky. It's nice to work to live and not live to work.

    Dave, what you doing is call hobby driving. We all wish we can do that and still pay the bills
     
    Diesel Dave Thanks this.

    I never hit 2k but I did run 1200 on paper once and I'll never do it again
    Practically had to peel myself out of the driver's seat and oil my knees after that

    Who tAught this guy how to log? No pretrip no post trip or fuel. Doing 800 miles in 11 hours surely had to burn fuel.

    Oops I see 3 minutes I guess for fuel. I can't even log 3 minutes on my elog.

    I find that funny sense most people I help who don't know how to do an elog. Log the same way. Kinda sad.. Mash that motor!!
