EPA 2027 explained: What unresolved regulations and NCPs mean for future truck orders (opens the original)
Read excerpt
MADRAS, Oregon—The trucking industry’s low-NOx heavy-duty future is just three months from ignition. Fleets and OEMs were originally given years to plan for the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) massive 2027 nitrogen oxide (NOx) emission regulations. But unresolved EPA amendments injected more volatility into fleet planning as 2026 fades. Daimler Truck North America (DTNA) detailed how its 2027 powertrain—the Detroit Gen 6—reduces NOx emissions from 200 milligrams to 35 milligrams per hors
How private fleets built their 2026 defense amid freight doldrums (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As for-hire carriers battled margin compression and excess capacity throughout last year, the nation’s private trucking fleets quietly cemented their supply-chain dominance. After spending the start of the decade reinforcing their defenses against uncertainty, private fleets spent 2025 expanding market share, tightening operations, and proving themselves as indispensable assets for their corporate parents.

Read excerpt
The scramble for 2026 commercial vehicles reached the OEM production capacity limit this summer, according to industry research firms that track truck orders. While North American fleets placed fewer Class 8 vehicle orders in August than earlier this summer, the decline largely signals the end of the 2026 order season—not a collapse in underlying demand, according to the data. August Class 8 preliminary orders retreated month over month as manufacturers prepared to open 2027 order boards, closin
Is there a trucking capacity illusion? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The freight market is showing signs of life as we head into the final months of 2026. But don’t mistake a capacity squeeze for a true demand boom. Summer data shows a market defined by contraction—not growth. According to the U.S. Bank Freight Payment Index, national shipment volumes fell 1.1% in the second quarter of 2026 and are down 2.8% year over year. American Trucking Associations’ (ATA's) For-Hire Truck Tonnage Index followed a similar path, dipping 1% in July. Despite this lackluster fre
