Lafayette, IN to Ogden, UT...1,496 loaded, delivers 1700 on Tues...nice start to the week.
That comes up short on the 50 mph clock...that would be a 30 hr load we are standing at 28 hours as of 1pm
Edit:
I' d be enquiring if 17:00 is really necessary? Are they just going to dump it on the dock and go home till morning?
Dispatch did that to me once in one to El Paso from Michigan ... A 9 pm delivery? Hey Pedro doesn't work that late? Lol
They called customer yep make that 10am EST ..
Dispatch just looked at the drive , calculated the hours with no thought whatsoever...

That's pure torture right there ... You have to fuel that thing every 4-5 hrs with that small tank anyhow be safe and good luck​
