One of biggest issues is running your unit when loading and unloading.
If your not using lift gate shut unit off, your using 1.5 gal's of fuel a hour
All units that have a sleeper should have genset on it, in 2 years or less you will start getting your money back. When I had my western star had a gen set , in 4 years saved $4,000 , in maintance. Gen set used 3 gal in 24 hours , instead of 1.5 gal's per hour add numder's up
Some state's have no running of unit law's
When it is cool out put windows down , window shad's in windows, park in shade etc

I couldn't agree more. I heard it from somewhere that numbers ruled just about everything. Personally, I believed once we have the basic numbers, we can begin analyzing and manipulate them to our own advantage.
