    How do they figure it out, came from home time just under full tank as told them when needed one for this load and have 3 fuel stops for an 850 mile run. I see no need for three for 800 miles and all were to fill.

    I personally skip the ones I do not need. I passed by Jessup, MD today. To much of a pain to get fuel there.

    Negative, all modern haulers read the mpg off the J-bus via the e-logs...
