Letter to the Editor: Fuel Prices

(Editor’s note: TTNews.com recently asked readers how they were dealing with high diesel fuel prices.)

The users of truck transportation, the shipping public, must pay a fair surcharge for fuel, which is an uncontrollable variable in the trucking industry.

Our company is migrating toward customers who understand the impact fuel has on trucking companies. It tells a lot about a shipper when you review his or her fuel agreements.
