Also, if you have an old-style, long-nose truck, you likely have plenty of options to pretty it up. For those with newer, aerodynamic rigs, not so much. But that is about to change. And eight states have changed their fuel taxes for 2021, while Michigan considers an organic way to clear roads in cold weather.
