Driving 600 miles a day in a diesel truck is a great way to appreciate truckers.
A few lessons I learned along a 2,530 mile five day trip:
• All roads are not smooth
• There is more than a fair share of distracted drivers out there to maneuver around
• Relentless wind noise and road noise is physically taxing over 11 hours per day
• I don’t think you can pay enough for a good driver’s seat or passenger seat
• Truck stops are not all sized for 200 tractor trailers. Some barely fit a handful
