    Easier to do! Yeah pro this con that... i have a really nice gig, i still poke around every couple of days. My goal is to have the least possible amount of legit complaints. Pay aint worth pain to me, so i go where im content. Other than a few minor irritations... i am content. Go find it!

    Usually the one paying the bill for that fuel will value fuel economy, so I can see where they're coming from there at least.

    Actually, he was off duty or sleeper while you were still burning your 70. If, during the course of a week, he's able to get another load in by doing this, he's still making more. If not, then true. But he has the option at least.
