    And calling the EPA which you said you did punishes all of us.......


    Maybe if you gave some specific examples of why Fitts sucks you might earn some credibility.........

    I don’t understand how people are worried about mpgs with a single truck.
    I see it way too often.
    If you get a real job as a real owner op the fuel is just another write off expense that you shouldn’t even care about.
    Unless I’m doing something wrong lol.
    Want better mpgs? Slow down. Or book lighter loads. Or run more flat routes.

    A Write off tax wise is not a one to one swap......not caring about expenses as a one truck show puts you out of business .

    It’s more about not having the emissions crap.....
