Life Cycle Costs Calculator

EnPak® Mechanic Series has many important benefits surrounding fuel usage and maintenance costs:

  • Because EnPak runs with the truck turned off, it can lower fuel use up to 30 percent.
  • EnPak's shared fuel supply delivers one tank to fill
    convenience.
  • EnPak can significantly reduce expensive truck engine maintenance costs such as oil changes; filter replacements (fuel, air, oil, transmission); and wear on belts/hoses.
  • EnPak can reduce truck engine hours up to 60% - significantly extending the life of your drive train.

The results are intended to illustrate the possible fuel savings, maintenance savings, and asset life extension savings using EnPak Mechanic Series and are based on user input. They do not constitute a proposal or a guarantee.
