    I've gone just under 900 miles, and I've noticed the truck has used some fuel.

    And I meant the name to be truck using fuel.
    This what happens when you just wake up after sleeping as a rhinoceros.

    The gauge is messed up, those tanks are still full.

    We subscribe to PFJ’s new Mobile In Route Fueling Service. It costs a little more but we don’t have to deal with fuel lines and idiots in fuel lanes anymore. Works like aerial refueling.

    Don't idiots in the fuel lines tend to make their way to the filter and plug it up?
