    I can't complain about the place. I had a lot of fun up there. It was time to move on though. What I want out of life next won't be found up there.

    Last time mine was plugged in, it showed 1,070,000 ish & 34,000 hrs. So that's an average of 31.5 mph..

    On 616,000 that be about 19,500 hr using the same 31.5mph average. Lower the average speed to 25mph could be as high as 24,500 hrs. In between there is what I'd guess you'd see on a truck that idled while the driver slept..

    Has 26k hours. Best I can figure if it was on the road 5 days a week that'd be a total of 260 so say a nice 250 for holidays and occasional downtime.

    616k miles works out to roughly 123k miles a year or 492 miles per day.

    492 miles per day divided by 60mph average works out to 8.2 hours per day of driving. Multiply that by the total number of driving days over 5 years gets you 10,250 hours of drive time.

    Idles 10 hours a night on resets is another 12,500 hours.

    Super rough guessing here but 22,500 hours accounted for on a truck with a PTO and 26k hours showing doesn't seem far off or all that high to me.

    Saw your comment in the 2021 thread. You want to know how that happens? 4 violations/tickets in January and now busted in Cincinnati? And he wants to blame the boss for pulling hazmat...

    It’s like watching someone pushing on a door that swings out and then complaining about not being able to go inside.
