    Our trucks should be spec'd identically then. The newer ones (#3000 +) are spec'd completely differently.

    I got mine on June 08, 2013 and have 95,000 miles on it. When we pulled the ECM reports, I had a lifetime average of 7.37 MPG. It was one of the best in the fleet for life of truck.

    Jct caps our fuel at $1.30 so if you're trying to figure out fsc, take the national average subtract 1.30 and divide by 6

    Other than a couple of minor issues that I fixed myself; I like my '12 Cascadia. I am averageing between 6.8 and 7.4 mpg. I am averageing about 7.7 right now running in California. The truck is in good solid shape.

    After my time at home, will need to back to the Sapulpa yard for my discounted PM, overhead, and coolant flush. Most likely I will be keeping this truck and aiming to have it paid off in 3 - 3 1/2 years. The apu will be paid off in about 7 - 8 months.

    I am running recaps right now. I got 9 hrs to run today. Will on have 2 hrs tomorrow, but then after that I recap not less than 8. Load delivers on Thursady in Ft. Worth, so I have time to get there running recap. My goal is to do my reset at the house while I get my stuff setup in the truck.

    I am getting ready to roll right now. I am glad I was able to get loaded early yesterday.

    The main thing I am having to get used to is the trip pak envelope. Seems I can never remember to take with me when I walk into the truckstop the first time. I usually remember at the next stop or the second or third time I walk in if I am on my 10.
