I realize that my fellow canuck got me on a rant....LOL
That was sarcasm. Mine is limited to 82mph. I almost never go that fast, once or twice just to pass rock-throwing Truck to avoid more cracks in my windshield.

Mr Backnforth......LOL.....Meet Mr. 3000....Ntimevan...
fuel is one cost we can control to some degree to make us more profitable....apparently big carriers have no such restraint or control as they keep side swiping our rates to maintain thier out of control budgets with redundant inefficient policies...
Agreed, although at 75 I was still getting 20 mpg...23-24 at 60...adds up on a long drive, do you like more sleep time / first up or more money...course with you and Murray doesn't seem to matter, but we aren't all blessed with a good carrier
Now about buying parts when not rolling...warning the wife is not cool with boxes in the bedroom and living room you actually have to put them on 
at 64 I get between 23-24 at 60, 24-26 wind depending of course...67-68 about 20-21
I try not to do long loads anymore....except on weekends...I don't do 800-900 mile loads DIRECT either....there has to be a couple hours to spare...its too hard on this aging body...
I buy my parts usually on the road...Iam very proactive.. belt tensioner kits, my filters...I change tensioner and both pulleys and belt every year....I haven't had an unscheduled breakdown yetNow about buying parts when not rolling...warning the wife is not cool with boxes in the bedroom and living room you actually have to put them on
In 11 years I've broke down twice loaded...once a tire because the spare was already on it, once an alternator...but lots of roadside repairs
If you knew that something was wrong ahead of time does that mean it was a "scheduled" breakdown?
well of course...thats Canadian speak....keep it between us....hush...In 11 years I've broke down twice loaded...once a tire because the spare was already on it, once an alternator...but lots of roadside repairs
