I have found truck drivers very generous. Today one gave me $5 cash tip when I delivered his Impossible Whopper(Just the sandwich, no fries and drink). He also advised me to have the state pay for my CDL and not get into a contract with trucking companies.

Here is today's WIIS arithmetic problem-
If the truck had about an 1/8 of a tank when we started.
And we've purchased 300 gallons of fuel so far.
And we've used 194 gallons.
How much fuel is left in The Blackie?
No calculator apps please.LoSt_AgAiN, lovesthedrive, Solo Soul and 1 other person Thank this. -
Beats my idling tainted 5.3 mpg. I’m still driving it hard, breaking it in. I think it’s working. I had some initial blow by. Now at 46k, it’s non existent. That’s my main concern. Last Truck, blow by came back after 40k, after an inframe, using all DD parts. I wrecked it at 50k, never even broke it in. I’m hoping my mpg will increase 1 mpg, at 70k. My Dad used to get a new Truck every 100k, every one them Detroit 12.7s. Like clockwork they would suddenly break in at 70k, mpg jumping 1 mpg. Keeping my fingers crossed. This Trucks never gotten over 6.2. That was just after it broke in last time. Averaged 5.7 for a while, then it was all downhill as injectors got old, blow by was horrendous. I ran it to the brink, till it started pushing coolant. Ran it 2500 miles that way, also had a blown injector for about 4000 miles before it got the inframe. Mpg was about 4 mpg. Lol. Im hoping to get 6.5. Something tells me it will only be 6.2-6.3.

According to that guage it’s on empty, not 1/8, so if you out 300 gallons in, used 194, you’d have 1/3 tank left. Is this a trick question? If so I request exact fuel tank capacities, mileage ran, and the use of my calculator.
