Trucking and logistics company Forward Air is on the verge of a potential acquisition⁠, with several private equity firms, including Clearlake Capital and Apollo Global Management, submitting bids, causing its shares to surge 10%. This interest follows intense pressure from activist investors after the company's heavily contested merger with Omni Logistics, which shareholders criticized for its structure and the large debt burden it placed on Forward. In maritime news, ⁠a historic order has been placed for a new liquefied natural gas (LNG) vessel to be built at a Philadelphia shipyard⁠, marking the first of its kind in the U.S. in nearly 50 years. This joint-build project by Hanwha Ocean and Hanwha Philly Shipyard aims to comply with new rules proposed by the United States Trade Representative, which are designed to counter China's dominance in shipping and shipbuilding by requiring a percentage of U.S. LNG exports to be transported on U.S.-flagged and crewed vessels. On the railroad front, ⁠CSX reported a decline in its second-quarter profits, with operating income falling 11% and revenue decreasing 3%⁠. Despite these financial setbacks, executives expressed encouragement regarding the railroad's operational recovery during the quarter, highlighting improvements in on-time performance. CSX anticipates overall volume growth for the year, driven by numerous industrial development projects becoming operational and the ongoing conversion of freight from highway to intermodal transport.

The trucking industry is facing rising costs due to a growing number of jury awards exceeding $10 million, commonly known as nuclear verdicts. Plaintiff attorneys are seeing greater success by using more aggressive tactics, leveraging jurors’ emotions, expanding advertising and applying best practices learned from prior trials — all of which are contributing to the rise in nuclear verdicts. In this episode of the Talking Transports podcast, Robyn Kazatsky, a partner at Lock Gordon Law Group, joins Lee Klaskow, Bloomberg Intelligence’s senior transportation and logistics analyst, to share her insights about how these verdicts are affecting the industry. Kazatsky also discusses third-party litigation funding, the push for tort reform, strategies trucking companies can use to mitigate risk, and how the impact of nuclear verdicts extends well beyond the companies directly involved.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We're on location in Katy, Texas for an exclusive look at Bot Auto, a company that's not just building self-driving technology—they're building an entire autonomous trucking fleet from the ground up. First, we sit down with the CEO to discuss their unique "transportation as a service" business model. Unlike many tech companies, Bot Auto operates its own trucks, focusing on the most important metric that others often ignore: cost per mile. We dive into how they leverage the latest AI innovations (while avoiding the hype) to create a profitable and efficient operation.Then, we go outside for a hands-on walkaround of one of their Level 4 autonomous trucks with their Director of Fleet and Operational Safety, a 26-year veteran of the Texas Highway Patrol. He explains the critical importance of safety, breaks down the advanced LiDAR, camera, and radar sensor suite, and discusses how this technology is poised to make our roads safer. We also talk about the future of trucking jobs and how autonomy is creating new opportunities for technicians, inspectors, and local drivers. Is this the future of logistics and supply chain? Join us for a deep dive into the practical reality of self-driving trucks. ⁠Follow the Truck Tech Podcast⁠ ⁠Other FreightWaves Shows⁠ Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Voice Of GO(r)D is pleased to bring you a light conversation about a heavy topic centered on the question of why the country that is most dependent in the world on highway freight for its economy has such short and light trucks.Professor Christopher Clarke is an economist at Washington State University, and is a presenter on a new social media channel called Business Explains The World. Their recent video on this question went viral, and as I have spent much of my trucking career outside of the USA pulling longer and heavier trucks than are usually to be found in America, I had to get him on the podcast.I've always thought of the 53' foot freight box as highly symbolic in that it is built explicitly to max out calories cubes where something like a Canadian Super B Train is built to max out on nutrition weight, and one of these things is healthier for the body economy than the other. Professor Clarke and I go back and forth on this question, amongst others, including the corporate welfare part of the equation where it concerns the production and flooding of the market with ‘drivers', which is part of the problem here. Higher density trucks require a higher quality level of driver, and if anything this Substack should have taught you by now, it is that the trucking industry in North America in 2025 is very busy chasing the high quality operators out.You can find Professor Clarke all over -Twitter - https://x.com/EconChrisClarkeProfessor Clarke's own blog - https://econchrisclarke.wordpress.com/TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@econchrisclarkeInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/econchrisclarke/As mentioned during the show, I hope to get Professor Clarke on for a longer and heavier discussion about this topic.As always, questions, comments, suggestions, corrections, weight loss tips and Hate Mail are strongly encouraged and always welcome - gordilocks@protonmail.comI'm almost done writing a book on the fate of the North American Trucker in 2025https://autonomoustruckers.substack.com/p/book-project-announcement-and-a-major

The most common question I get is, "When is a good time to start a trucking company". In this Episode Craig and I are going to answer that question and the answer might not be what you think.  But..... before we get into that, I tell a story about a stressful situation one of our drivers experienced that has a happy ending and gives you faith in humanity. What to Expect in Episode 181 Starting your own business is never an easy decision. It requires a huge leap of faith and a lot of guts. Most people just are not willing to jump into the unknown like that. I commend you for even thinking about it. The entrepreneurial spirit is one of the biggest, if not the biggest reason the United States is the greatest country in the world. The right time for you to start a trucking company is a very personal decision and I hope this episode will give you some insight to help you make that very big decision. I think there are different 4 scenarios or "triggers" that when you meet at least one of them you are increasing your likelihood of being able to run a successful operation. The first three are things that are well within your control. The last one is not in your control and I think it is also the one that involves the most risk and most prone to failure. It is also the one that entices most people to make the leap.   Get the full show notes: http://bit.ly/haulinassets   Motor Carrier HQ: http://bit.ly/motor-carrier   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/haulinassets Podcast/ iTunes: http://bit.ly/ha-itunes Google Podcasts: http://bit.ly/ha-google-podcasts Stitcher: http://bit.ly/ha-stitcher
