I think you need a solid relationship to do feeders and much more so for sleepers. If you have a bad situation going into it it’s only going to make it worse. That said I know some guys that do it and have families and it’s fine so

For sure, but I think being away from home a lot when you know you already have a struggling marriage is probably a bad idea. You just gotta know your situation as best you can.

Are these the same sleepers also working 3 additional days in top of their run?
I know a guy on my hub who basically sleeps on his car because of this.
sleeper run 3 days then extra work on Sun, Fri and Sat

I weigh less in sleepers than I did when I was in a brown.
Nah, just like anything.= it's what you make of it.
I made $135k last year running 4,000 miles or less last year. We rarely worked over 72 hours. My new run is 3714 miles and our schedule is 66 hours, not even three days. Monday night to Thusrday afternoon. EZRPA > LANPA > CHIIL > DENCO > GRENC > EZRPA

I’m assuming he’s supposed to log the time he’s using it when sleeping? Never used one, don’t need it….. yet.

It autologs with myAir. All he really has to do is use it for 4 hours minimum, they don't look into it too much

The newer ones have a memory chip in them that sends when it’s being used right to your Dr.

Only 22 year FT (30.5 total PT+FT) but I’m number 40 out of 430 at EZRPA. We have 27 sleeper teams and I think I’m the 8th A driver.
