This needs to be taken with a large grain of salt. The data used was a little cherry picked, not that I'm against picking...
Day 2 of Elogs ended up poorly for me. The unit went to sleep at my second stop and woke up poorly. I was unable to force a reboot (3 fingered...
An imperial gallon is about 20% larger than a US gallon, so your US mpg would be around 5 to 5.5 mpg. This is pretty normal for a "hood" truck,...
I played around with it quite a bit. I bought b100 and tested different percentages. 7% worked the best for fuel economy. Higher than that the...
Sorry, means just the opposite. Swift will be able to move loads via other carriers. That means that a one pony O/O with their own authority...
not even close, it's an electronics engineer with a soldering iron.
There is some exhaust gas left in the cylinder when the exhaust valve closes. The incoming air mixes with the left over exhaust gases. In the...
Stump nailed it. It is a regional difference. I drive in the Pacific Northwest (or the Pacific Northwet) and the expectation is different up...
I think you meant 3.5 mpg. So by using my rule of thumb, I would use (10 - 4.5) 5.5 mpg as a planning number for a 45K load. That would be...

I'm not following your math. How did you arrive at -25 mpg?
My rule of thumb is that adding 1000 lbs will drop the mpg by .1.
Yes they are. I've talked with a Gordon o/o that uses them in the PNW and he was very happy with them.
Google has a patent. http://www.autoblog.com/2011/12/15/google-awarded-patent-for-autonomous-car-mode/ I give it about 10 years before it...
Starvation is almost always a matter of income, not food production.
Change the oil in the transmission. Really. I have a 2000 Century with a autoshift that has more than 1.4 million on it. I used to fight torque...
Tomorrow I have gall bladder surgery, so tonight I watched "Alien".
Try reading this thread, it will answer most of your questions....
(ponders what an unfinished liner would do to an engine) My mpg's average into the low 9's, and it looks like Dice1 has raised the bar into the...
I would be interested to know if the liners and pistons were treated. Audi has developed a laser pitting technique for the TDI engine liners....
