Hey! I'm George J.Magoci and I will send you a FREE eBook where you can learn 12 secret steps how to make $950 more truck/month.
The elliptical fuel tank provides high capacity and low center of gravity which give high stability of the truck. OK fellas, in this moment you probably thinking: AND WHAT ABOUT THE RECTANGULAR FUEL TANKS? IF THEY WHERE UNSTABLE PROBABLY WOULD BE OUT OF WORK BY NOW! That is a really logical question.

The rectangular fuel tank has also a stable gravity point when it has a wider base at the bottom than at the top.
In addition to this review, I like to point that the cylindrical shape of the fuel truck allows better force reducing of the waves inside of the fuel tank. The angle of the wave is reduced to the
- Upper side
- and the fuel tank wall

So, in this case, the strength of the wave is reduced in 2 directions, not in one like in the rectangular fuel tank. The strength of the wave is splitting in 2 and the hitting force to the wall is lower which brings higher stability of the truck.
Tanker Endorsement for Driving Fuel Truck
I will mention again that transporting liquids can be more difficult rather than dry loads. The liquid cannot be fixed like the dry van loads. The liquid will always move inside of the fuel tank. The fuel truck should not be fully loaded because of the expansion of the liquid inside the tank.
