Fleet utilization is a critical factor in the success of motor carriers, impacting efficiency, cost control, and overall profitability. Fleet utilization refers to the process of maximizing the use of your vehicles and drivers to achieve maximum efficiency and productivity. By measuring and monitoring various aspects of your fleet operations, you can identify areas for improvement and implement strategies to enhance utilization, reduce costs, and increase profitability.

To mitigate these risks, insurance providers are turning to video telematics, the use of onboard cameras and sensors, to more accurately assess driving behavior and provide rate quotes that more closely align with the risks involved.
Semi trucks need a huge amount of torque to move their 80,000 lb+ loads. Being able to move these loads across the country, up mountains and off-road in fields requires a lot of force. Many times, the torque needed is more than what the trucks engine can put out on its own. This is why most trucks come equipped with turbochargers.
Moisture is the enemy to any piece of mechanical equipment and can cause a mess of problems. Water can make hoses and gaskets brittle, impact oil and lubricants, and the list goes on. Making sure your air lines are clear of moisture and buildup is critical for your safety.
