The city of Raleigh just did a study on road damage and one fully loaded 18
wheelers damage to the roads is pretty extensive. They said that it takes 5
thousand passes with an average car to do the same mount of damage as one
truck makes. I thought it was kind of off but the state did the testing. I
know a major part of road damage isn't so much trucks but for up north it is
the cold with water freezing helping to break up the pavement/concrete.
As for economy. Did I mention I'm saving about $220 a month running the
Jetta TD over my 02 Silverado? Even though diesel is at $2.45 and gas is
down to $2.11
