Explore some of the ways data can help you navigate some of the challenges facing trucking fleets, from fuel economy to downtime to parking.

This episode of HDT's Leadership Insights podcast is sponsored by, and produced by HDT's editorial team in partnership with, Geotab.

  • High fuel costs

  • Do you know how much DEF you use?

  • Dialing in to save dollars
