    On Thursday night I drove 700 miles straight through... Aside from a single 4 min stop to pee and switch from Ag. Exempt to drive.

    Oklahoma City. I40, s Morgan rd exit.
    Right next to the TA. Straight across the street from Blue Beacon and Pilot.
    They have the Indian food trailer outside. I’m not joking it was really good and different. The OM would approve. :)

    99 engine, means it’s exempt. My 01, has a 99 engine from the factory, it’s exempt. The Truck comes up as a 2000 in Freightliners system, due to the build date, but its Titled as an 01.
     
    D.Tibbitt, LoSt_AgAiN and Dave_in_AZ Thank this.

    Can you find me the ruling on that?
    Boss was running this on paper. Then a DOT officer made the driver go got a Garmin elog in Montana.
    I would greatly appreciate a strong backup to run paper.

    I have absolutely 0 desire to run those big mile days anymore.

    Paper would be very convenient at times. When you just need an extra 5 minutes, or truck stop or rest area, just a place to take a ####, is like 8 miles from shipper or receiver, that has nothing, and that's going to burn 3 hours of you're 14.

    . You almost would have made a produce hauler ( the almost regular 2000 miles in 30 hours) thank goodness those days are just memories.

    I ran Fema on Katrina when I was with LS. Out of Camp Beauregard Louisiana. Never saw a trailer in that good of shape. All lease trailers.
