[QUOTE="over9five, post: 438084, member: 1401"] I am generally under 30. I don't know what exactly they're aiming for here, other than "keep your idle time down". It could be that because I'm under 30, they don't talk to me about it. I've heard the turbo charger argument before, but who cares? The cost of repairs ain't our decision! (Do they really change that many?) Like Chev, when my tractor stops rolling, it's off. Just for fun a couple of times, I've gone out of my way to see how much I could affect it. Like when I see a red light up ahead, I'd slow immediately down to 10mph, and by the time I got to the light it would turn green. (Anything under 8mph is idling for anyone not in Feeders). I could shave about 7 minutes off my idle time doing this, but it is a pain in the neck to think about it and do it all day. What's your average idle time, Rush? [/QUOTE]
