[QUOTE="HD219, post: 3496840, member: 72443"] I joined this forum just to reply to this post. I deliver HD in a very rural area. This week I averaged around 90 stops, 120 packages, 180 miles a day. Takes me about 6 hours delivery time to complete. I drive a sprinter and most days I have that thing completely full. Anyway...our terminal is going to single system tomorrow. The only con for us HD drivers in sprinters is that it's going to be more difficult to locate a package without being able to write a huge sequence # on it. I locate a package as soon as I open the back doors no problem. Other than that, VRP is trash. Turn by turns are useless. I don't know of a single person that uses them. The maps are so off that if I were to follow it, I'd be passing 20 stops to get to the next one. Manifest is the only necessary pieces of paper we need. From what my boss explained to me and what I've read on here is that all the packages will be organized in clusters. That's how I'm going to load my van. I'll probably write the road names on my first 20 stops and then use the freed up space to spread out the next cluster. [/QUOTE]
