Take the 2-minute survey and help us build what matters:

The Big Thing

Shell Rotella just put real money on the table for drivers.

Starting today, get a qualifying Shell Rotella oil change and you can earn up to $100 in Truck Parking Club Cash. No gimmicks. No hoops. Just submit your receipt and get Club Cash you can use at any of our 4,200+ locations nationwide.

Here's how it works: Get a Shell Rotella T5 or T6 Synthetic Blend or Full Synthetic oil change (minimum 11 gallons) at a participating installer. Save your receipt. Head to rotella.com/nightonus and submit it. Within a few days, you'll have up to $100 in Club Cash sitting in your account, ready to book parking.

For decades, Shell Rotella has been the name drivers trust to keep engines running strong. From SuperRigs to oil that stands up to millions of miles, they've always shown up for truckers.

Stay Off The Ramp

We get it. You're out of hours, the rest area's full, and the ramp is right there. But ramp parking puts you inches from 70 mph traffic — and it's not worth the risk.

Use code ramp25 for $25 off any daily booking at any of our 4,100+ locations. Find a real spot tonight.

Trump Threatens to Block Gordie Howe Bridge Opening The $6.4 billion Gordie Howe International Bridge connecting Detroit to Windsor, Ontario is complete and set to open. President Trump says he won't let it open until the U.S. is "fully compensated." Here's the irony: Canada paid for the entire thing. The bridge is jointly owned by Canada and Michigan. A House investigation is now looking into whether the owner of the competing Ambassador Bridge, a major Trump donor, lobbied the White House to block his new competition.

BLS Revises Truck Jobs Down. Way Down. The Bureau of Labor Statistics annual revision shows far fewer truck transportation jobs than originally reported. December 2025 came in at 1,466,900 jobs. That's 125,000 fewer than the January 2023 peak. What looked like a flat employment picture all year was actually a steady bleed. The revised numbers confirm what the market has felt: capacity is leaving, quietly and consistently.

Tender Rejections Holding Above 13% Carriers are still rejecting more than one in eight loads tendered by shippers. That's the highest sustained level since 2022, and it's happening while tender volumes are running 6-7% below year-ago levels. Translation: this tightening is supply-driven, not demand-driven. Capacity is exiting faster than freight is slowing down.

Arizona Bill Would Let Police Seize Trucks for Fake CDLs A bill moving through the Arizona legislature would make it a felony to operate with a falsified CDL if you're in the country illegally. It also authorizes police to seize and auction the truck. And if the employer knowingly hired the driver, they'd owe a fine equal to the truck's value. Similar legislation is advancing in Florida.

Ohio Converting I-71 Rest Areas to Truck Parking ODOT announced it will close two I-71 rest areas in Medina County starting March 2nd and convert them into dedicated truck parking facilities. The $6.8 million project expands capacity from 30 spaces to 95. It's part of Ohio's larger $150 million push to add 1,400 truck parking spaces at 33 sites by the end of 2027.
