    Well Lewis friend,
    Exactly how many miles? Depends man, there is no "exact" amount or a minimum for that matter. He has run weeks at 2500-3000, and the last couple of weeks he runs from New England to Martinsburg WV, and back. Gets alot of Proctor and Gamble loads from Stamford Ct. going out to Iowa. He has been waiting for reloads anywhere from 2-4 hours sometimes. What happens is New Century LTL in NJ sends New Century TL in WV loads that they have assigned to TL drivers. TL drivers deal with WV dispatch like a middle man. Its f'd up sometimes. WV dispatch arrives around 8am monday morning. So if you are not under load over the weekend your waiting for a pickup come Monday. You cant call NJ dispatch either, a big no-no. TL drivers get treated "differently" at NJ Terminal. Equipment is top notch though. T600's w/APU, Super Singles,

    Yeah, that's the thing that is really giving me a hard-on for N.Century is the kenworths WITH APU! And they go faster than 70? Harry rules!

    So how fast do they go?

    I cant remember precisely what they are governed at ( I think 70 is actually all they will give you) but Harry is cracking down on the speed. Gotta save money. All idle time and overspeed minutes are kept track of in the Qualcomm unit. The more idle time you have, the more they will cut back your speed to balance it out. His truck will NOT idle for more than 2 or 3 minutes and will shutoff, no matter what. Even if you are in gear and in traffic, no road speed. Light will flash on dash and will kill the engine unless you keep hitting the accelerator pedal every 2 minutes.
