Tolls: Even More Expensive Than You Might Have Thought!

toll
Tolls cost in more ways than you might think
It might be time to rethink raising tolls. Originally I was just worried that it would just raise the cost of goods and services...and it will. I never even took into account the impact it would have on off road businesses along the highway.

Well, according to The Trucker, tolls are going to have a huge 'toll' on roadside businesses. The I-95 tolls will charge truckers money just to exit the highway and even more money to get back on. On top of that, there is the cost of the toll to be on the road.


So now your $6 McLunch is going to run you something more like $10 or more. The tolls are there to raise revenue but tax revenue losses will increase because of all the businesses that will be starved of customers.

Finding Nuggets of Good Economic News In Transportation

Sometimes You Have To Search For The Silver Lining In Economic News...But you can find it


Finding good economic news has not alway been the easiest in the last four years. In fact, not just do you have to search for it, but you have to wade through a lot of ‘fluff’ articles about an improving economy that just don’t feel that credible. Don't get me wrong, I want to believe. I want every trucker, car hauler, tower, or Cottrell owner to believe them.

It is just the proof is not always there....


Thus, a story with sound numbers and logics about economic improvement stands out and I think I found one. According to Today’s Trucking, October showed the largest number of truck class 8 truck orders and class 5-7 truck orders since the beginning of the year. So here are the numbers.


  • Over 23,000 class 8 trucks sold in October
  • Over 18,000 class 5- 7 trucks sold in November


This seems to be a solid provable point. For those trucks a number of economic gears had to go in motion


  • Customers had to have credit
  • Banks had to loan the money
  • A Cottrell transport had to haul the cars to the dealer
  • and probably lots more...

Hopefully this is a start of good things to come?
