    #### the bad luck. Does anyone know Maverick's official written policy for fuel tank additives? Just wondering because I know fact positive that fuel mileage does increase with certain additives and certain engines and I know that use of certain additives are used regularly amongst certain people who achieve verifiably excellent results to the point I would consider it foolish to own a truck without using them.

    Finally finished for the night. Tow showed up within an hour of being called and got me to dealer and dropped my trailer then pulled my truck to the maintenance row and dropped it. Couple long hold calls to fleetnet and back in bunk to sleep til they come get my truck or I wake up which ever comes first. What a new year so far sigh.

    Praise God! Appears my fuel leak was a hose that rubbed thru,a hose that KW in NLR just replaced not more than a month ago. So Im having dealer document this and plan to press KW in NLR to pay the bill.

    Don't know where I saw it but Maverick has a deal with AT&T for a discount for employees. You have to take your pay stub to the AT&T store. My wife just did this and was told we will get a 15% discount on our cell phone bill. It can take up to 2 month for them to process it but hay, it's easy to save a few bucks if you have AT&T.

    It was in the new employee package that my husband got when he was in Orientation with Maverick. I should have done this way back in August 2011 but for some reason had the mistaken idea that you had to be starting a new account with AT&T for the 13% discount on qualified monthly charges when it is actually the equipment discount that has to be with new activation - hubby is due for an upgrade on February 14, 2012 and I am due for an upgrade on June 23, 2012.
