The truck types that accounted for most of the fuel consumed were identified and modeled by computer analysis. Baseline fuel consumption was calculated for the major truck types over specific duty cycles. Design improvements in the truck were then modeled, and the effect on fuel economy was estimated. Total life cycle costs for the incorporation of improvements were developed for single improvements and combinations of improvements.
