Reducing fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions is becoming
increasingly important in the United States, and new legislation can be expected in the
near future that will affect trucks either directly or indirectly. This work is a qualitative
examination of operational strategies for reducing fuel consumption from freight
trucking, and also compares them with vehicular strategies. A focus is placed on who
implements, benefits from, and pays for each strategy, and what type of trucking each
strategy is applicable to. / text
