James Menzies, Editor of Today's Trucking and TruckNews.com, returns to unpack the key forces shaping the trucking industry mid-year. From rising equipment costs and unpredictable tariffs to the freight recession's impact on rates and replacement cycles, James offers grounded insights into how fleets are navigating today’s uncertainty. We explore the stability of the medium-duty market, challenges tied to new EPA regulations, and how shifts in EV policy may slow, but not stop, adoption. With 2026 approaching and pre-buy questions mounting, James weighs in on evolving equipment trends and what the remainder of 2025 may bring.
