    Also how many of these people getting such good MPG use Trailer skirts and Rear door wings? Are they running a stock rig on a stock van or an aero van?

    For the end of year with a reefer, I'm somewhere between 2.10-2.15 (haven't tallied up my 4th quarter numbers yet to get the total). Mine would've been higher, but I chose not to do 'at cost' loads to fill in the deadhead (longest deadhead was 950 miles). Loads between those points were moving for about $1/mi at most and though it would've upped my average. I do have some principle in not taking it.

    Auto/trans might cost you MPG, depending on the driver?
