How hurting are O/O's?!!

So thats what APUs look like? A miniature engine? Nice! I wish Crete would invest in those...

 

And it has the cool, hot rod style stamped louver cover too

 

heck thats good for anouther .02 MPG!!!!!!!

 

I wish you luck with your Pony Pac i had one years ago in a truck i bought and had nothing but bad luck with it finally had to pay some one to take it off and re plumb my truck. It would never run or act rite and always fad trouble with the way the exhaust was set up to run thru the truck exhaust it always rotted the exhaust out in the eldow. Any way they may have improved some of the issues but i never liked having to run an inverter with the Pony Pack to get 110 i wanted it all in one package. Just a little past experiance with them from years back like i said they may have made a bunch of improvement since then i hope so.

 

I have been doing 65 MPH since I bought my truck last August. My demise is going to be deadhead miles. I can get 7 MPG all day long, but as the fuel rises, I lose more money to travel to the higher paying loads. As of right now, 5/24/08, I need a MINIMUM of $1.50 a mile JUST TO BREAK EVEN.

 

7 mpg at $5/gal = $.71 per mile. That would leave $.79/mile for all maintenance/repairs, insurance, incidentals (tolls, scales, washes, etc.), tires, oil changes, and salary and taxes.

Thinking deadhead is not the culprit.

 

When I stop, I will break down my numbers.....yours do not apply fully to my situation.

 

I agree!!! Some truckers are so sissy and SPOILED that they think they have to idle all the time, no matter what! They have no regard for any anti-idle laws, no regard for the air we breathe, ne regard for the neighboring truck, no regard for their truck or their bosses truck, simply noregard for anything but their ignorant self!
