""IMHO, anyone who buys a Deuce or 5 ton and is overly concerned
with fuel economy and streamlining has his/her priorities
seriously out
of whack. """
uhh....IMHO, that's 180-degrees ass-backwards.
A semi gets even less than a deuce, and those drivers
are really concerned.
A train gets less than a semi, and those guys are REALLY
concerned.
A big cargo ship gets even less than a train, and believe
me, those guys are REALLY REALLY concerned.
Should I mention large jet airliners?
Obviously, the worse the mileage, the MORE concerned
one typically is about economy.
Of course, those who leave their trucks in the yard are
probably not concerned at all. But those of us who
use the trucks daily are indeed interested in any mods
to improve economy.
