    Why is the Fuel Surcharge the same on a 5,000 lb load as it is for a 45,000 lb one? [​IMG]
    Sounds like just another case of the man trying to hold us down.

    Pretty much, that's why nowadays its so important to not only keep your truck running just about perfect, but to also hone your driving skill to operate the truck as efficiently as possible.

    That being said, I agree with you 100%, FSC should be higher on heavier loads. But let's be realistic, that will happen around about the same time as govt officials coming up with HOS that make sense and help US out!

    Yeah, you're right, better not get started down that road (esp on a Monday morning!).
