Anyone Know A Math Formula?

They want the guys to manually go through mapbooks and figure mileage, hours, etc. Any easy formula?

I use a 50 mph rule because its easy. Thats 2 hrs for every 100 miles. So, 800 miles = 16 hrs. I add an hour to that to cover my 30 min 'lunch break' and 2 bio breaks, plus an additional 30 mins for each fuel stop. Finally, if Im loaded heavy and going through the east coast mtns, I add another hour. Then I back track the time to allow me to arrive 2 hrs early and allot for any 10 hr breaks.

I know if I can drive all day, I can do 600 miles on flat surfaces, and around 550 miles on rolling terrain.

It works for me.

Software you say? Turn me on to it. I've been asking about that for weeks now & everyone acted like I was speaking Mongolian.
