This table contains 649 semi-truck companies observed using energy efficiency products such as aerodynamic devices, wide base single tires (WBS) and auxiliary power units (APUs) between April 2014 and April 2016. While most are newly spotted companies, some are updates on trucks observed during the initial study.
This table represents the continued work of my tractor-trailer truck watching project, the culmination of three additional years of watching and documenting trucks on my morning and evening commute. The quick explanation for the original study (and as a result, this table) is here, and a more complete one is there.
Note: This table scrolls left to display additional information about each company. The legend for truck spotting frequency is on this page below the truck company table. State and province abbreviations using in the table are further down this page. Note that depending on your device and browser, header and columns may not line up perfectly.
