Default Air Drying Lumber-Turbo Method?

I just returned from a vacation which included driving across the
Canadian prairies to the west coast. At one motel stop I noticed a flat
bed trailer with a load of neatly stickered and stacked lumber. At first
I walked by it but then I thought "stickered"?
I talked to the driver in the morning and he told me that his main line
of business is moving large pieces of machinery from Ontario/Quebec to
BC. He found that he could add to his income by buying green lumber in
BC ( quite cheap) , drying it on the way home and selling it dry back in
Ontario or Quebec.
So at 100kpm (60 mph) for 25 -30 hours @ 25* (77*F) how dry might the
lumber be? Cheers, JG
