Trucking in North America vs around the world

The Joys of having Big Fuel tanks..!!

 

Are you averaging like more than $5-6 a mile ?

 

what do you have for fuel tanks ? 5 - 150 gallon tanks ?

 

It's Not My Photo.. A Roadtrain operator posted It on Facebook .They said It would last approx 3000kms before needing a refill..

My Primemover has 2 450 Litre tanks..

 

Is there a limit how much of fuel you can carry?
Here it is 1500L (397 gallons), this include fuel for ref.unit for trailer combined.

If your fuel tanks combined are more than 1500L you can get fine even if they are not full.
This is related to fire hazzard. Above truck should be ADR (hazmat)

 

not here

 

How much is max tank capacity you regularly see on trucks

 

Fleet road trucks 2x 100 gallon tanks . Vocational maybe a single 100 or 2 x75 gallon.

my truck has 2X135 gallon tanks. However after delivery I split one tank and have 70/65 gallon fuel/ hydraulic oil

So I got 205 gals fuel and 65 gals Hyd oil

most you ever see is 2x150 gals fuel plus separate hydraulic tank for that kind of work

 

No...Not that I'm aware of..

 

I had twin 150’s on the old corn binder. Loved the flexibility it gave.
