I refill two big Stanley thermos's [sp?] daily. Prefer Pilot/Flying J for the high octane coffee with some caffeine additive.

Rest breaks are as necessary. But DOT and DOD both recommend two hours or 100 miles approx between stops. 350-mile daily max. Those are contractor and employee rules for USG last I heard.

My pickup and Kenworth can both roll past 1000-miles before fillup.

And have never understood why folks link the two (bathroom and fill up).

In my country, commercial drivers are supposed to not exceed 8 working hours a day.
