Running with JCT, Part Deux

So far this quarter (starting Oct 1) with 15150 miles, my average has been 8.30 MPG.

 

Ah. Cool. So, worth the investment in your opinion? Thinking about ordering it when I trade up to the 2016 truck.

 

Just a heads up. If you get a phone call from an 876 number and they claim to be from Publisher Clearing House and want to deliver your prize to your house in x amount of time; just hang up. Its a scam. Don't give any info. They don't already have your address. They have called me several times and no has ever showed up.

 

In my opinion, definitely. If my math is correct, I've saved over 962 gallons. Take that at a LOW average of $3.50 per gallon and that's a savings of almost $3400 in just 5 months. Well actually 4 months since I took September off.

 

Quick question for you guys, in the last 8 weeks or so I've seen a Mack Pinnacle, a Volvo 780, a Petrbilt 579, and a Kenworth 680, all of them white sporting the blue and green "swoops" that all JCT lease trucks have. The thing is, there is nothing on the website about trucks other than '12 and '14 Cascadia's, and '13 660's.

So what's the deal?

 

They are test trucks. They may include them into the fleet.

 

Likely FLEET TEST trucks

 

Those are test trucks. They are testing them to see if they are fuel efficient and problem free. As to whether or not JCT bus any more, we'll have to wait and see.
The MAJORITY of the trucks we have are Cascadias.

 

According to Jack, they are buying 60 680's, 50 Petes, and 150 Cascadia Evo the first week of January. When they get to the yard, probably mid second quarter or later.

These will be the replacement trucks for the 12 Cascadia and later on the 13 KW's.

 

Had anyone heard anything about the Carrier Gen Pro APUs? Good or bad. How are they compared to Thermo King.
People keep asking me about them, but I honestly can't give them an answer.

Any feedback is appreciated
