February 24, 2023Reports: Locomation is out of business at month’s end
Topic: Reports: Locomation is out of business at month’s end
Alan, what do you know?

What happened?

Is this a casualty of the economic times we’re living in or perhaps bad decision making internally - or both?

Was Locomation the only company in the autonomous space to be working with the convoy model - and if so, do you see anyone else that might pick up the baton if they saw at least the idea of convoy trucking as a positive step forward?
Topic: Nikola could be out of money in 12 months
Then of course there is the story that Nikola may be out of money in 12 months - what can you tell us there?

How bothersome is this coming right after they announced their integration with Plus technology?

Will they be able to weather this or are they looking for a buyer and try to become part of a larger company?

February 17, 2023BP buys TravelCenters for $86 a share
John KIngston - Editor-at-Large - FreightWaves
This seemed to pop up out of nowhere but the sale of Travel Centers was something that was pushed for quite a while - how did this deal go down?

What will be the main effect in the truck stop industry of this acquisition now with Travel Center, Love’s and Pilot Flying J with a large market share of the industry?

How does this effect BP’s oil and gas position now that they have a distribution outlet directly to the trucking community?

As far as the deal is concerned - is $86 a share a fair price for Travel Centers?
