Diesel truck drivers have a common qualm with their beautiful engines: mileage. Diesel trucks don’t always get the most bang for their buck when it comes to filling up at the pump.
One way to counter this little issue is to use an economy monitor. This technological product works with your truck to determine when you’re wasting energy, and where you can conserve.
