Effects of speed and idle
• Engine - The ideal speed for the average truck is 80-90 km/h (50-55 MPH). The power required to increase speed increases by 73% more horsepower at 100 km/h (60 MPH), and by 159% more horsepower at 110 km/h (70 MPH).
• Fuel cost - Each 1.5 km/h (1 MPH) above 80 km/h (50 MPH) increases fuel consumption by 1.5 percent.
• Tires - Heat is the problem number one with tires. Sustained speeds raise tire temperatures above the critical level causing strength and wear properties to deteriorate rapidly. Wear on tires will almost double at road speeds of 110 km/h (70 MPH) or greater.
• General Maintenance Costs - Gears, bearings, clutches, suspension and drive trains all wear much faster at higher speeds. Increasing speed from 80 km/h (50 MPH) to 100 km/h (60 MPH) increases maintenance costs by 38%. Increasing the speed to 110 km/h (70 MPH) increases the cost by 80%.
• Idling - Idling causes twice the amount of damage as average driving. One hour of idling is equal to between 80 and 120 minutes of driving time. The resulting loss of fuel economy from excessive idling can add up to 3000 liters (800 gallons) of fuel annually for the average truck.
