The fuel efficiency of a glider truck depends on several factors, including the type of engine and transmission that are paired with the truck, the driving conditions, and the load being carried. However, in general, glider trucks can be more fuel efficient than older trucks with outdated engines and transmissions.

Glider trucks are often paired with newer, more fuel-efficient engines and transmissions than those found in older trucks. This can help to improve the fuel economy of the truck and reduce the overall operating costs. Additionally, by customizing the engine and transmission to the specific needs of the truck, owners can optimize fuel efficiency for their particular application.

It’s important to note that the fuel efficiency of a glider truck will still depend on several factors beyond the engine and transmission, such as the aerodynamics of the truck, the weight of the load being carried, and the driving habits of the operator. Additionally, glider trucks may not be as fuel-efficient as brand new trucks that are designed with fuel efficiency in mind.

There is nothing that makes us happier than when a client grows their business because of the financing we helped them with..

It took my bank 13 days and lots of documentations to initially approve my truck loan for my business loan. When the bank started to get the title for the truck, the loan came to a complete stop. The bank told me they can’t finance glider trucks and to pick a differnt truck. During entire loan process, the bank manager said they can finance glider trucks. I went ballistic. Luckilly the dealership recommended Glider Trucks and two days later I closed with a lower monthly payment then my bank of 15 years rescinded from me. Problem solved.

I started using Glider Truck Loans becauseit was the only truck lender that I could find that funded high mileage trucks for new trucking businesses. I have stayed loyal to Gider Truck Loans, since they helped my trucking company grow in to the profitable 53 truck fleet it is today. Most of the trucks I finaced had no down payment and great interest rates. I definitely owe Glider Trucks Loans a debtr of gratitute for all the help beyond financing they have provided my business.
