    I only do it so nobody would open the trailer and throw trash in. It's bad enough the first sweeping. I picked up a trailer close to El Paso, TX and somebody let their dog take a ####t inside the trailer. My oh my, was I pissed that day.

    Wow u have some serious issues. If your getting that bad of mpg then u have no idea how to drive. The reason those trucks look like ship is sni tired of fixing them and them have some wanna be trucker get in and wreck it. Most of those trucks SNI owns so why not get the most out of them. But to answer your question SNI has been upgrading trucks lately and to the amazement those dam rookies are already wrecking them.

    I have issues? I don't know how to drive? Haha, eat a bag of #####! Please explain to me how driving at 60mph with cruise control on, on flat land and getting 4.5 mph at 78K pounds is a result of me not knowing how to drive? No, couldn't possible be the trucks problem. A super trucker like yourself knows all the answers. Enlighten me!

    What I don't understand is back in 2000 the 60 series got better fuel mileage than these newer engines. Shoot I was getting 6 mpg at 78000. Sometimes more. The EPA is screwing the trucking companies. So the trucking companies have to put the screws on us. Thos Paccar engines don't get much better than the Cat's. Plus don't have any power. What happened? Those Detroits used to get good fuel mileage.
