Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

A 30-ton steel tanker carries 4,500 gallons (20,250 litres); a 30-ton Gloster alloy tanker carries 5,000 gallons (22,500 litres). That is 11% more payload every time the Gloster tanker goes out. 11% more load is 11% less to pay for tyres, fuel, wages, depreciation. It adds up to a net saving of £500 for the 40,000 miles-a-year tanker. £9 a week !

A Gloster alloy tanker costs about £750 more than the equivalent steel tanker. But the extra load carried pays for this difference in only eighteen months. A Gloster tanker gives you greater payload, more economical operation and larger profits. And they are guaranteed for five years.

You can see that Gloster tankers make very real business sense. Write to us for details of how Gloster tankers can help you.
