Trucking consumes 13% of the national energy!
It's incredible that more is not being done to improve the average SIX MPG these 18 wheelers/monsters consume.
All this is being done with a dirty-polluting and lung/cancerous non-renewable petroleum fuel.
We believe petruleum should ONLY be used for 'other' roducts.
We are aiming to 'truck' with 100% alternative fuels that are 90% cleaner, renewable, make an engine last 50% longer and is biodegradable.
......to continue.

IF these trucks R in UR area they MUST B there 4 a reason. Trains take to long 4 transporting goods thus raising the inventory cost, so inventory cost alone would make trains more expensive. America wants their products 'right now.'
Basically, 'whatever IS' is because 'it NEED 2 B.'

Posted 2:19pm August 30th, 2010Oh you hit a nerve with me. . right now my area is innundated with trucks on every road because it is harvest time. The tomato trucks are there. The peaches trucks are there. They all hog the road and try to make good time (who can blame them?) but America MUST wake up to this enormous need. . trucks hauling things from the harbors should be replaced by railroad cars where it seems safer and probably cheaper. We, of course, need our local harvest trucks but also on my hiways are trucks from the harbors in the San Francisco area. Let's do something about this!
