Thanks to Clean Energy, provider of the first LNG retrofitted truck for
active application in the harbor drayage environment, we have been operating
an LNG truck in our fleet for close to one year now. This gave us the unique
opportunity to experience for ourselves the performance of an LNG truck
compared to a standard diesel truck.

We have placed several drivers behind the wheel of this truck to obtain a
variety of opinions and perspectives of its handling and power. Through this
experiment, we have confirmed that the LNG retrofitted truck has the same
power and torque of a diesel truck. The LNG powered truck has been able to
pull every container we have sent it to pick up. Additionally, we have
determined that the fuel economy is very close to that of a diesel engine
and the engine runs quieter and emits less odor due to the elimination of
diesel exhaust.
