I'm still laughing from reading the post by Truckiedriver, and the response by mike3fan. It reminds me of wind tunnel testing as it makes sense, but somehow just doesn't work out the same when applied.

I'd have insulted him earlier except for my being AWOL. Better late than never.

11 hours ave 50mph Times .28 cents per mile. = 154 dollars a day times 6 days a week = $924 per week times 45 weeks a year = 41,500 a year. Thats 7 weeks off plus 1 day a week off = 101 days off and 264 days worked. Beats flipping burgers and nobody gets in a hurry. Ahh Life is good.

I don't even drive 55 in my home state of CA. No thanks.
