I saw this graph today in an Automotive Fleet email newsletter:
When fuel spiked last year, GPS Insight helped our customers save fuel by curbing idling, reducing speeding, ensuring the most appropriate vehicle was sent to a job, and that the efficient routes were taken.
Here is an article about how we saved a customer $100,000 EACH MONTH in fuel during the Summer when fuel prices were at $5 per gallon of diesel. Then the snowball effect saved them literally millions throughout the year.
Here is another article about how we send alerts to your drivers themselves telling them to stop wasteful behaviors.
Get GPS Insight in your vehicles and get control of your fleet. There are so many benefits, you will not regret the decision. Start with a unit or two to and see what kind of insight you will gain into your fleet. Call one of our reps at 866-477-4321 (1 for sales) and find out how we can help.
You can be up and running within 1-3 days with GPS Insight. Really!
[or you can buy a 1/2 gallon of gas with the money you don't spend on the product, per day -- that will go down to 1/3 gallon shortly]
Thanks,
Rob.

Hi Rob, almost the 4th of July already … where has the time gone this year? For sure, this is a great thought to plant that owners and managers can reflect upon while they have a little time off during the long weekend.
Nobody wants to see the price of gas and diesel go up, especially with things as tight as they are in most businesses these days … but a little silver inside the big dark clouds is, the higher gas goes, the more GPS tracking will save. That sounds obvious and simplistic, but many never look at it that way … if it’s worth saving 50 gallons of three dollar gas per month per truck (~$150) then you’ll save the same 50 gallons of five dollar gas (~$250). That will take some of the sting out of the ’slap’ in fuel prices we know is inevitable this summer.
I know I sound like a salesman .. and indeed I used to be one … but I sell nothing now. Just wanted to chime in with an independent opinion. GPS fleet tracking is a can not lose proposition. There ain’t many of them left these days.
