Maverick Driver general bs thread

Hmm, I've seen those. Seems much less likely to spill than the PS bottles. Cheaper, too. I'll have to try them out.

...and if Sarge uses it, it should be mandatory

 

Ask sarge to tell his first experience with them.

 

Sarge, tell us your first experience with them, please.

 

Omg did you get stuck in that. The line was 3 miles long at 203 and another 3 miles long at 192 where traffic was being diverted. Luckily, I was going to NLR. I think someone hit the guard rail in the one way construction zone and the cops blocked everything to get a tow truck in from the opposite direction.

 

Use fppf today. Worked as well as the other stuff and much less messy. From gilman, IL to NLR at 64 mph with a strong headwind and a 79000 lb load I averaged 6.7 mpg today. This truck is very sensitive to NOT having additives. Last similar run I had with this truck had nothing but fuel in the tank and got 5.5 mpg.

 

Great....use it year round every time u fuel.

 

My fuel mileage hovers around 5.5 but I guess that comes with the territory...6 year old truck, almost 700,000 miles on it, 92,000 lbs gross weight, 12 feet wide...about as un-aerodynamic as it gets.

In this truck...it gets that mileage (average) no matter what...even running empty I only get about 6.5...the empty trailer weighs 20,000 lbs though (more than 2 skate boards), less aerodynamic than a skate board too.
