Besides rail, Trucks are some of the most efficient methods we have to move stuff. In the us, a semi can be loaded to 80,000lbs while the hummer is only rated to tow 6,600lbs. Semi trucks typically have 150 to 300 gallons of diesel capacity meaning at 8mpg you could go up to 2,400 miles on one tank.
