It had been a few months since riding in a relatives tractor trailer, this was the bill for 137 gallons.
but as many hypermilers know to figure mileage, some forget that there is 40 tons on the 5-6mpg (that one fact actually makes cars seem WAY inefficent even at 40mpg) and houses getting built with lumber delivered. "Trucks make the world go round", so it is not all that much a shock...unless it is for some crazy guy and his turbo diesel hick dodge pickup gone mad, driving around by themself, hillbilly stacks and lucky to haul 10000 pounds without breaking something...those are the repulsive ones.
