The national average for a Class 8 truck in almost 2018 is still only aound 6.5 MPG.

With my last truck in 2012, the BulletTruck, we achieved 13.4 MPG coast-to-coast.

We expect to do better with the brand new StarShip, and we will be doing another coast-to-coast record run along I-10, in February.
