    We've made it with 1hour and 14 minutes left on our 70.

    4,125.3 miles
    This is from the time I left my yard, got The OM, 3 pick ups, 4 deliveries to this loading dock, trip by the house, blah, everything.

    580 gallons used. The last 375 this morning took .4 off the average for 7.1mpg for the week.

    Fuel and DEF cost $1608.87 after discount.

    Started with less than 1/4 tank, currently at 1/2 tank.
    Blackie has 220 gallon capacity 120 + 100 so we'll say 60 gallons bonus.
    We're not even going to count that. Give that 60 to the haters.

    $2.77 gallon with a free 60 gallons for the haters.

    Remember this is the truck no one wants.........

    And I'll already give a hint....that after 4 years of numbers the truck and blue sky complete is $80 day. 365 days a year.

    Why would anyone want to go to Schneiders when a driver can net 8k+ a week driving for @Dave_in_AZ ?
