The wholesale level has to pay attention or go broke.
Fuel prices have eased some but refrigerated loads from the inland northwest delivering to central FL are up 52% in the last two years. Most of that increase happened in the last eight months. Loads from central CA to FL are currently 15,000$ per truckload. We’ve had short term spikes in fuel prices before that didn’t significantly move the freight prices but this is different. More like anticipating higher inflation which of course fuels inflation. If the mindset becomes entrenched, we’re screwed.

These higher gas prices sure dont seem to be hitting people that hard at all! I take the highway to work each morning and you have to be doing 75mph here just to not get run over!!! Most days im flying at 80-85 and still getting passed! And the semi trucks, holy cow i have NEVER seem so many on the roads...seems like there is just as many or more then regular cars on I-294 northbound in the morning! Its crazy
