    Filed and paid IFTA at the last minute. Actually it was 3 minutes past midnight. No penalty. Only ran 12,230 miles. 2721 gallons purchased. A whopping 4.5 mpg. Total bill was only $45.00 Kentucky was $54.00, that included $9.00 late penalty. They got Me. I got myself. Don’t know why I play that game. Must be bored.

    Tained all weekend. May have stopped a couple times. But never dried out. So much for working on the Truck. My backs finally getting better, after 2 weeks of being out of whack.

    Problem about waking up early and
    Switch to burning coal? Might get better mpg.

    You idle a lot?

    Flat bed the wind resistance can gut mileage. I would get 8.5 on something small against the step. Then 4.5 with od.

    LS does my IFTA so I don't know what my yearly looks like. I just check tank to tank sporadically.
