    D unit vs. B unit!

    Hi Jeff, I think it is all relative. Right? Yes, you spend more on fuel in a straight truck BUT, you also earn more per mile. ;-) I think the BIG difference comes in when you throw a husband/wife team in the mix - now the truck can run unlimited miles AND all the revenue stays in the same...
