Is There A Super Cycle Forming?

Is trucking on the verge of a freight supercycle—or are we simply witnessing the start of a long-awaited recovery? In Episode 2 of Season 6 of Sense Per Mile, Kevin Hall, Karen Smerchek, and Thom Albrecht break down one of the biggest questions facing trucking today: What happens next as capacity tightens, regulations reshape the market, and carriers finally begin to regain pricing power?

It's A New Sense Per Mile

Sense Per Mile is back — reimagined with a new format, new content, and a new panel of industry veterans.
