","text":"our fuel is 2.00 per gallon but I have to fuel at pilot and deal with the 45 minutes to fuel drivers. I drive no faster than 70 ever hauling lowboy chassis's carrier and around average 6.8mpg with my old black smoking 6nz.","replyToPid":387915}

{"replyTo":"","text":"This is a very great falsehood. The REAL TRUTH is you make more money driving slower and saving on fuel. My truck grossed $297,677.00 last year and I paid taxes in over $115,000.00 take home driving 55 MPH.\n\nJust look above at the guy who gets 4-5 mpg. He would pay DOUBLE WHAT I PAY FOR FUEL... more than $70,000 more in fuel costs. You need to deliver ALOT more loads to NET the $70,000 in extra costs","replyToPid":0}
