Case Study: C&G Haulage achieves better fuel economy and smoother heavy-haul operations with Eaton UltraShift PLUS transmissions

Eaton roots firmly planted with heavy hauler fleet

C&G Haulage, a family-owned heavy-haul trucking company, faced the challenge of integrating new and dependable technologies into their fleet. They needed solutions that would provide maximum reliability and fuel economy while carrying heavy payloads, but found that many suppliers lacked the necessary support for new emission-friendly engines and components. They turned to vendor Eaton for a solution.

Eaton implemented its UltraShift PLUS MXP automated manual transmission. The results were excellent, with the initial test transmission accumulating over 1.2 million service miles. The trucks provided better fuel economy, and the drivers loved the ease of operation. Due to this success and Eaton's outstanding support, C&G Haulage has since spec'd the Eaton transmissions on additional trucks and highly recommends them.
