Fuel prices are one of the most volatile—and visible—costs in fleet operations. While market conditions may be outside a fleet’s control, fuel efficiency is not.
Consider this:
At roughly 130,000 miles per year and $5 per gallon, improving fuel economy from 6.5 MPG to 7.5 MPG can generate more than $13,000 in annual fuel savings per truck. As diesel prices rise, the value of that improvement increases even further.
Across an entire fleet, that single‑MPG improvement can quickly translate into six‑ or seven‑figure annual impact, depending on fleet size and fuel costs.

Savings examples shown are based on improving fuel economy from 6.5 MPG to 7.5 MPG. Actual results may vary based on application, load, and driving conditions.
Modern, fuel‑efficient equipment helps fleets operate in a stronger MPG range while also supporting uptime and more predictable operating costs. TEL’s newer trucks are spec'd for maximum fuel economy.
Fuel prices may fluctuate—but the right equipment decisions can create lasting savings.
