Fuel costs can add up, so maximizing efficiency is key. Maintain a consistent speed, avoid rapid acceleration and braking, and use your engine brake (B) and retarder (;) on descents to save your service brakes. Cruise control (C) is your friend on long, flat stretches. Invest in fuel-efficient tires and engines for your trucks. Consider purchasing your own fuel trailer (DLC) to refuel at your garages for a lower cost. These small habits can lead to significant savings over time.
