That documentary about the shipping container crisis made me look at my load board differently

I was watching that Netflix doc on global shipping last night and they mentioned how a single missed port call can cascade into weeks of delays. I started cross-referencing weather patterns with my route planning after that, and I've already cut two unnecessary layovers this month. Anyone else find useful tips from random shows?

Man, that's exactly the kind of smart thinking that saves real money on the road.

Right, because nothing says "vacation" like sleeping in a makeshift bed in the back of your sedan. I've done the "fold down the seats and hope for the best" routine a few times. You wake up with a crick in your neck and a new appreciation for actual mattresses. But hey, the extra cash goes straight into the next tank of gas, right?
