Trucking Is Booming Again, And Drivers Aren't Happy About It
Trucking has entered a boom, with volumes and billing up and demand growing. At the same time, the administration is cracking down on who is allowed on the road, tightening the supply side of the market. The episode examines whether this boom is structurally different from past cycles and why many drivers remain unhappy despite the good numbers. Reed Loustalot, chief marketing officer at Truck Parking Club, joins to discuss parking shortages, the rise of surveillance, and how a recent Supreme Court ruling could further impair capacity.
