This is how it is working at CIC for new applicants:
Those who have been in Canada throughout the eligible period and those who do not need security/police clearance because they have not been in another country for more than 183 days, etc, etc since becoming PR will be flying through the process as it is just a formality. Just depends on how many applications a person at CIC can vat each day. Perhaps they should contract it out to new comers who need work or maybe the refugees waiting to be processed in which case they can earn some money

Not sure about your comments...I have seen 2 examples in Mississauga the other way...people travelled a lot outside got it earlier than people only travelled out of canada for 42 days.
I'm still struggling with figuring out how many times I've been in and out of Canada. I've made several day trips/weekend trips to the US and I don't really know exactly what days. Although, I'm way over my eligibility in spite of those trips. Can someone please help me with the following two things:
1. What's the best way to determine the absences? Especially the road trips.
2. Sample explanation letter to go with the application stating that I may have missed some of the trips as I don't have a record of them.

and if it doesn't help you then attach the explanation letter stating why you can't get the records and give your consent to CBSA for any enquiry to retrieve those.
