Tips for Improving Fuel Mileage in Your Diesel Truck

How often have you tried to improve the fuel mileage of your diesel truck? As a truck driver, this would be one of the primary concerns but not always if you follow the care and maintenance tips regularly.  Moreover, as the fuel costs are frequently on a rise, it is extremely important to get good mileage from your truck. Taking the right precautions at the right time is the right way to save money and keep your truck healthy. Here’s a run-down of stress-free ways that can help your truck move efficiently.

  •  Regular Care and Maintenance:

Would you skip your meals for a day if you have work or wait for the weekend to do the everyday chores? Of course not, then why take chances when it comes to the care and maintenance of your truck. Regular maintenance helps in the smooth running of the vehicle and uses less fuel too. Doing few simple tasks can help you avoid the bad after-effects such as check if the tires are properly inflated, change the oil regularly, regular engine maintenance, clean the air filter, and keep the fuel injectors clean.

  • Accelerate in a Slower Pace:

Driving at a slower pace is not something that many truck drivers would love especially if it is a powerful diesel truck. But doing so will help them save fuel and add to the vehicle’s efficiency. According to experts, “it takes 4 times more power to push your truck against air resistance at 70mph as it does when you’re driving 35mph”.

  • Lighten the Vehicle:

Keeping the vehicle excessively loaded like carrying the unwanted metal boxes burns more fuel. Therefore, it is advisable to free the vehicle from excess load and lighten the truck to save fuel and money. Taking few simple steps can increase the fuel mileage of your diesel truck.

Hope the aforementioned tips help you increase the fuel mileage of your truck and its efficiency too.

Let’s Measure Our Love

Nothing could be rated down than slipping a love-wrapped gift to your better half. You might be in love or in a relationship. May be married even! The timely gift speaks your love for her/him. Romantic time in your life comes often. Let’s make this Feb-14, a little more special. Being well-wisher of truckers, we can simply feel your rough task to roam around the city. How bad it would be missing your loved one. Why can’t you make much outta this day? We know when it comes to money or relationship, you will choose relationship. Yes! Relationships are important too.

If your valentine stays home (Gifts for women):

Do take some little time to know what’s going on her life, when you are away from home. Check out whether she has proper food diet, while she misses you. Realize the efforts she puts in to bring up your children on her own. Know her wishes and take this chance to fulfill them.

Some gift ideas:

  • A hand-written letter, closer to her heart.
  • Candies & chocolates
  • A beautiful dress that she love to wear
  • Booking for a relaxing spa or a romantic movie
  • Personalized gifts like photo printed Tees, photo frames and coffee cup
  • A candle light dinner

We personally don’t believe in gifting flowers or candies to women. Not all the women love flowers. Some may treasure it, while others look for some expensive kinda gift. So open your purse at least now!

These gifts could be attractive. But remember no gift would be greater than your presence.

If your valentine trucks (Gifts for men):

Before you make any plan for this day, just think off how your true love suffers all the time in huge traffic, irritating noise from blowing horns, driving long hours gearing it apt for winter etc., Get to know his pains. Now your mind says, “Let me ease his pain by showering loads of love” And it is valid to plan for the day.

  • Present him an all new love-photo of you couples that could make him think of him at anytime he sees that.
  • Prepare a special meal on the day. It’s better to bake something he preferably likes.
  • If he has to run behind the wheel, then pack those dishes shaping up them in to heart form. In times, it may even end up in the shape of lungs or liver. Doesn’t matter!! Love that counts J
  • A music player gift, Old idea but still makes perfect sense. Utility matters
  • You might belong to any community. Get your god’s perfect love book, which would not be a trouble to carry along trucking.

God’s perfect love books!

In the mean time, make some ample time love your country too. Pay taxes on time or file an extension to avoid penalties. Happy e-filing!

IRS Provides Tax Relief to Victims of Hurricane Sandy; Return Filing and Tax Payment Deadline Extended to Feb. 1, 2013

In the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy, the Internal Revenue Service announced additional tax relief to affected individuals and businesses.

Following recent disaster declarations for individual assistance issued by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, the IRS announced today that affected taxpayers in Connecticut, New Jersey and New York will receive tax relief. Other locations may be added in coming days based on additional damage assessments by FEMA.The tax relief postpones various tax filing and payment deadlines that occurred starting in late October.  As a result, affected individuals and businesses will have until Feb. 1, 2013 to file these returns and pay any taxes due. This includes the fourth quarter individual estimated tax payment, normally due Jan. 15, 2013. It also includes payroll and excise tax returns and accompanying payments for the third and fourth quarters, normally due on Oct. 31, 2012 and Jan. 31, 2013 respectively. It also applies to tax-exempt organizations required to file Form 990 series returns with an original or extended deadline falling during this period.

The IRS will abate any interest, late-payment or late-filing penalty that would otherwise apply. The IRS automatically provides this relief to any taxpayer located in the disaster area. Taxpayers need not contact the IRS to get this relief. Beyond the relief provided by law to taxpayers in the FEMA-designated counties, the IRS will work with any taxpayer who resides outside the disaster area but whose books, records or tax professional are located in the areas affected by Hurricane Sandy. All workers assisting the relief activities in the covered disaster areas who are affiliated with a recognized government or philanthropic organization are eligible for relief.  Taxpayers who live outside of the impacted area and think they may qualify for this relief need to contact the IRS at 866-562-5227.

In addition, the IRS is waiving failure-to-deposit penalties for federal payroll and excise tax deposits normally due on or after the disaster area start date and before Nov. 26, if the deposits are made by Nov. 26, 2012. Details on available relief can be found on the disaster relief page on IRS.gov.

The tax relief is part of a coordinated federal response to the damage caused by the hurricane and is based on local damage assessments by FEMA. For information on disaster recovery, individuals should visit disasterassistance.gov.

The IRS also assures taxpayers, businesses and tax preparers that IRS is working aggressively to monitor the situation and provide additional relief as needed.

So far, IRS filing and payment relief applies to the following localities:

In Connecticut (starting Oct. 27): Fairfield, Middlesex, New Haven, and New London Counties and the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation and Mohegan Tribal Nation located within New London County;

In New Jersey (starting Oct. 26): Atlantic, Bergen, Cape May, Essex, Hudson, Middlesex, Monmouth, Ocean, Somerset and Union;

In New York (starting Oct. 27): Bronx, Kings, Nassau, New York, Queens, Richmond, Rockland, Suffolk and Westchester.

Salutation for the women in trucking!!!

5% (or more) of the composition of the trucking industry in America are women. For the convenient advantages in the industry or for any other reason, more and more women are stepping to run the wheels each year. People who say ‘trucking is not where women land up for it is too rough and stressful for them’, are considered mere ignorant of today’s world. Women have been in trucking from as long as there have been trucks. Lillie Elizabeth Drennan, apart from being the first lady to be Commercial driver licensed in 1929, was also the first ever woman to take ownership of trucking business. She operated her business successfully for nearly 24 years despite long routes, rough roads and stress from the opposition. Her legacy has inspired many, especially women, to follow her steps into trucking industry to take forward driving as a career.

Women share the dreams and difficulties of the roads as far as driving trucks is concerned and the industry wouldn’t be running the same way without these dedicated women of wheels. Tax2290 salutes all women drivers for their courage, patience and power that they possess to run the wheels on roads. As owners, they now can file form 2290 for their heavy truck’s heavy vehicle use tax online, so fast and safely. It doesn’t take much time to fill in the IRS form 2290 requisite details and the filers would be returned with Schedule 1 copy within minutes.

Women in Trucking has been working towards the encouragement of employment of women in the trucking industry, promotion of their accomplishments and minimization of obstacles faced by these women. They have been actively working for the motivation of the transportation industry and their women-related activities chiefly. Tax2290 is a proud member of the Women In Trucking Association extending our support to help them provide the necessary resources to encourage women having goals inclined towards the trucking industry. We also heartily congratulate Ellen Voie, President/CEO and founder of the Women In Trucking Association, who has been honored by the White House in “ordinary Americans doing extraordinary things” through its “Champions of Change” initiative on Aug 6th, 2012. There’s another date of high cardinality to truck owners, 31st August, 2012, which is the last date to file HVUT tax returns.For more information on due date extension due to Labor Day weekend IRS shut down, click here.
