Fright forwarder only make money when a truck runs every day. So 200,000 km (124,000 miles) is a common distance in a year. The consumption before was 35 l/100km and reduced to 30.8 l / 100km = 4.2 l less for 100 km ! With a distance of 200.000 it is a saving of 8400 Litre.

In Germany such a Truck will saver 8400 x 1.1 Euro = 9240 or 13400 USDThe price for fuel in Nigeria is 0.35 Euro (0.5 US$) per litre or 1.9 US$/Gal.
