I think they need to speed the game up, you can drive 14 hours in 10 seconds and it takes 14 real hours to recover from it.

I'm on, too.

Radio Flyer, just like in real life.

The thought of starting out with a cabover (ack!) is a hit to the crotch, but we'll see how it goes. LOL

Watch every leg of the way. I usually get fuel for 1.65-2.15. I dont mind the cabover, kind of like it. The fact it cant get over 45 stinks. I had a breakdown a little while ago, only cost me 108.00 to fix it. I've still never seen any of the rest areas they were talking about, maybe I'm missing something.

The weather can really mess with you. I'm hauling construction equipment from Minneapolis to Churchill right now. I'm 736 miles into a 1040 mile run, exhausted and already had to fill up again. I fueled before I left and had to fuel again at about half because of the poor weather and slow moving. I'm going to keep running these northern territories I think. You get the most points and pay is a little better. I have 404 miles to go and it has to be there by 9:55. Will be pushing it to make it there on time.
