Fuel Savings and Return on Investment
With today's diesel prices, maximizing fuel efficiency is more important than ever. Our products 6% fuel savings will reduce the average truck’s fuel consumption by 1,000 gallons every 100,000 miles to produce a fast ROI and tremendous long-term savings. Unlike the many fuel saving products that fail to deliver on exaggerated claims, we base our numbers on U.S. DOE sponsored
SAE/TMC standardized tests
conducted by a respected third party. Operational fleet tests have exceeded our
partner's expectations, and proven the functionality and durability of the
products over the long haul. We take a full view of the cost equation involved,
from initial expenses to ongoing maintenance factors, and are confident our
products are among the most cost effective means of maximizing fuel efficiency
available to the industry. Prove it for yourself and put your fleet ahead of the curve.

Every fleet's fuel saving potential and ROI is different due to regional fuel prices, tractor efficiency, trailer mileage, operations and the aerodynamic configuration. However, most high mileage fleets will receive an ROI on their original investment in less than one year. Whatever your needs, Freight Wing Inc. has an option that will improve your profitability by decreasing fuel expenditures.

Diesel Prices are on the Rise!
Rising fuel prices may substantially increase the fuel savings made
possible by enhanced aerodynamics for decades to comeAccording to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, “world demand for petroleum is expected to skyrocket by 56 percent, or 43 million barrels per day (bpd), over the next 20 years, due mostly to strong demand for transportation fuels.” Meanwhile, supplies are depleting and political instability in the Middle East (where 40% of the world’s oil originates) can severely escalate prices. Although the price of fuel is often quite volatile, it has increased over 60% in the last two years. If this trend continues, we will be paying over $6 per gallon in only four years. Freight Wing™ products help to control the effect of fuel price increases and volatility.
