    well, my DEF tank is only like 12 gallons(maybe 14?), it is literally just a jug next to the fuel tank, so yea, I am always filling that up to.

    My truck (2013 Cascadia) Uses very little DEF fluid, and also it has never needed regeneration. I have put about 70,000 miles on it since I got it.

    If you don't idle you won't need a regen. This winter my 14 has Regened a couple times. Nothing like being woken up because it sounds like a jet engine is outside. I can go about one week on my Def roughly 3000 miles on a tank which is either 20 or 25 gallons. All the def tanks should b same size. Mounted next to drivers fuel tank. Looks like a old army Jerry can.

    Pretty much. We have a fuel solution macro but I don't know anyone who uses it. In fact if I'm in a situation where none of the big truck stops are around, northern Minnesota or Wisconsin, then all I have to do is find a truck stop that takes EFS. My DBL can turn on my card for that particular stop. No fuel limit either though I do try and keep it reasonable.

    Ok, this account is switching to milage based pay away from the ABP/mileage block system (0-50,51-100 etc). On the surface it looks good. Need to run some numbers on the previous weeks to see what's what. Hopeful though.

    I ran the numbers, doesn't look good for me, it maybe different for you, but eliminating the phase pay is killing me. Will be chatting with dbl later this afternoon.
