Where is everyone?

You are demonstrating what I always tell people about staying out. You can only run 70 in 8...eventually you run out of time. Why not take that at home? I understand you couldn't control it because the opportunity came up for a good load. But there isn't really an advantage to staying out...you still have to take a break. It does take a little more skill/discipline to end up at home when you are getting low on hours. Even if you don't have anything to do at home you can utilize the day and a half for PM.

 

I bought a Doonan Platinum. I was in a hurry to get from the shop to the house and forgot to snap a couple of pics. I will get some pics tomorrow and post them.

 

Beat me to it... Umm.. Pics please. You know how we are

 

If you don't run real hard you can always move some things around and keep on truckin. But I'm with you, I would much rather take my time off at home with my wife and kids.

 

The best I could do now is maybe rob a pic off the dealers website. Lol

 

wow i feel better... alot of people say i gotta do a reset here or there... and i always say i like to do my resets at home, and i get looked at like i have 3rd eye ball in my fore head, or i get laughed at they say you will never be able to do that...

i think in 5 years i have reset 4 times at a truck stop.. ok ill count 3 years when running maxi's i was home every weekend

 

I am working hard on not working hard..... this weeks run was an exception, and this is the hardest I've ran in years. And I can tell you that I will not be doing it again anytime soon i hope. I put in 4,100 miles in 7 days, and that is just too #### many miles.

 

#### you were humpin it

 

In the last couple years, I have had a couple drivers come on board and tell me they don't need to be home. I always tell them that is fine and there will be opportunities that arise...just like it did for SHC. But on a normal basis, just work hard for 5-6 days. Take 1.5 off an start again. If we are doing our job right this should put them in a cycle of consistent 2500-3000 mile weeks.

 

I put on 4078 this past week SHC...hardest I've ran in a good while myself!
