We took data from over 50 of our utility and municipal fleet benchmarking clients and their active Digger Derricks from 2017 to 20211. The sample included nearly 12,000 vehicles weighing less than or equal to 55,000 GVWR. The data used represents the patterns we have seen from the industry average of the selected sample.
A benchmark can be applied to any facet of your fleet’s operations. From maintenance to vehicle class, process to product – a benchmark is always a good idea.
Surprisingly, we discovered that not only are alternative fuel vehicles not popular in fleets yet, the number of them have actually decreased by 11.4 percent since 2012.
The operating costs for 4×2 in year one was $75 per 1,000 miles, while in year nine it was $265 per 1,000 miles, an increase of $190 over the nine years.
