Does your fleet suffer from "Range Anxiety Syndrome"?
5/19/2009 9:23:38 AM

By Mark Betner

"Range Anxiety Syndrome" is approaching pandemic levels among fleet owners wanting to fight costs in these difficult economic times. The cheap deals of lubricant competitors saves only a pittance of what is really needed to cut the real costs.

Trying to optimize the service life of engine oils, drive line and chassis lubrication to get to the real savings is at the root of this latest emotional turbulence facing fleet managers. Do I extend my drains and develop "Range Anxiety Syndrome" or contact the professionals at CITGO for the remedy?

The following fleets have found the cure…why not you?

Foodliner

Transport America

Heniff Trucking

Chicago Bus

National Express(Durjam Schools)

James H. Clark Trucking

Michigan City Central Maintenance

NOTS Trucking

Rieth Riley Construction

South Shore Slag

And many more being added daily...

SynDurance now Lubricates over 45,000 power units who have escaped the "Range Anxiety Syndrome". You too can become one of the emotionally healthy fleet managers today!

So, you can go with the cheap deal that saves only $60 annually per truck OR you can talk to people like John Hayes at Heniff Trucking who is saving $2000 annually per truck!! The real prescription for "Range Anxiety Syndrome" is the CITGO GreenWay Family of Lubricants.

PS-Heard this phrase during the Infineum Trends presentation from a Ford Motor interview and had to added to the mantra!!
