Vermonters are an interesting bunch. We love trucks, because many of us are farmers. We have wood to haul for our stoves, kids to move to college, and muddy class 4 roads to traverse.
We need trucks.
But we also care about the environment, and not wasting fuel. So how do we maximize fuel economy on the highway in a pre-owned pickup?
Some have suggested putting the tailgate down makes a truck more streamlined at highway speeds, but it turns out this is simply not the case.
To maximize fuel economy in your truck, be sure to always keep the tailgate up. Covering the cargo box with a tonneau cover may also increase aerodynamics.
Another great way to improve efficiency is with a well-serviced vehicle. Make an appointment with our service center, and we'll make sure your truck is getting the most miles out of each gallon.
