Now that 2016 is behind us, we wanted to reflect on the year that just ended by compiling lists and stories to encapsulate 2016 from the trucking industry’s perspective.
Using our readers as a metric, we put together five top 10 lists covering our feature articles, daily news, blog posts, videos, and photo galleries. Taken together, these collections provide a brief overview of all of the most interesting or important happenings from the year gone by.
A few of our editors have also written up articles to sum up the year in each of their fields of expertise, looking back at 2016 and ahead to the future.
Heavy Duty Trucking magazine’s staff will be back on Jan. 3 to bring you the regular daily news and analysis that you expect from us, but for our readers who came into the office today we sincerely want to wish you a Happy New Year as we move ahead into 2017.
