Poor MPG will kill any profit. Something people don't think about is the Fuel Surcharge on loads. Unless the changes it ,they always like 6.5 MPG to figure out fuel surcharge. So if you driving a 379 wit 6NZ and only getting 5 or 5.5 MPG the more fuel goes up the more money you lose. Because the fuel surcharge is not enough to make up for you low 5.5 or 5 MPG. If diesel goes to $6 a gallon your out of business. If you get above 6.5 MPG the more fuel goes up the more money you make. Unless you getting ok MPG them older engine can be very expressive to run.

Thanks for pointing out what I have been repeatedly saying. 6nz is a 2000 model year engine, even though some were made in 1999.dirthaller Thanks this. -
