    Not many like prime especially the ones that doesn't drive for them but they must be doing something right otherwise they wouldn't still be in business.fuel is a factor why the slow trucks but Prime use to get a lot of speeding tickets and had one of the worst safety records in the industry.bet their safety isn't too bad now.

    Why don't you post your mpg at fill up ? Your posting what the truck is doing going down the road and far as I'm concerned, you probably got that going downhill. Why don't you post your real mpg at "FILL UP", that will give you the "REAL" mpg's. Incase you don't know what that means, when you fill up your fuel tanks and write down the total mileage at FILL UP and divide it by total gallons at FILL up. That gives you your REAL mpg.

    I don't require the "dim witted drivers" part - many here have a fairly firm grasp on fuel economy, mathematics, reading comprehension, physics and aerodynamics.

    You guys are forgetting that Prime will only route you downhill in order to save fuel
