    sumptin tellsmeyou are guessing!

    wait....the real answer is coming

    ummm....are you sure about the "no load"?

    As long as he shows the time to drop and post trip. Then yes...that would be correct.

    As above....show the "work" part (either dropping or unload) on the log, then PC to home. However,if the company has a limit in miles or time allowed under PC, then he...as the good company man we know him to be...he will honor this distance/period and shut down 4.3 miles from the front door and do his 10 before going home......NOT!

    The first FLCs were built in 1977 model year
    A buddy had the first one in southern Saskachewan hauling fuel across the prairie area of Canada.
    He had a heater against the back wall of the cab with a crawlthrough to the 36" sleeper

    Hahaha poor @singlescrewshaker; I have a load that I’m picking up right now and yeah there’s pretty much nowhere to stop in Louisiana anyway, besides places like Walmart, but why do that when I’m just an hour or two away from home? Besides it’s bs how long it takes me just to get loaded, been 1 hour and 40 minutes and I’m half way loaded

    that was going to be my question....how long to load? just eats away at your available time. Any way to get into a split sleeper situation? get your 2 hour off duty, then roll to a place to do 8 in sleeper and get home sooner?

    When I read about those log situations I'm glad I don't need them! Sure I log on paper the trips that aren't regional but the situations that get explained here would drive me crazy. That's why I'm out here...so I can do my own thing. I feel for you guys!
