Have you ever seen rubber sap extracted from a tree? How about a robot building tires?

Class 8 trucks competing on a drag strip . . . raising money for children . . . these two great concepts came together this month in an event sponsored by Double Coin Tires.

Data for trucking fleets is like a hunting dog . . . it points you in the right direction, but you have to take the critical step of aiming and pulling the trigger.

Taking care of tires is a top priority for fleet managers because a complete tire management program can be the difference between solid profits and just getting by.

Total intermodal volumes climbed 7.2% year-over-year in the 1Q 2018 . . . strongest growth in four years.
