Answer:

The correct option is;

Fluid power systems are much more efficient with regards to energy costs and overall cost savings

Step-by-step explanation:

The option that will provide a valid reason for the larger proportion of the consumers to change to the fluid power trucks from the diesel powered trucks is the possibility of increased efficiency in the cost of energy, and the cost savings to be made from making the switch to the fluid power trucks, due to the lower input required and the faster rate at which the consumer budget will be rebalanced leading to increased return on investment and improved rate of return.
