DIESEL DIDN’T CREEP UP. IT JUMPED.
Midwest diesel reached $6.68 per gallon—up more than $1.10 in just three weeks.
For a truck running 100,000 miles a year, today’s diesel price represents roughly $45,000 more in annual fuel expense than last year.
That changes everything for Northern Indiana truckers:
More pressure on cash flow.
Less room for wasted expenses.
No patience for insurance that no longer matches the operation.
Now is the time to verify:
• Every truck and trailer is listed correctly
• Mileage and operating radius are accurate
• Idle equipment isn’t draining money
• Drivers and commodities are properly reported
• Coverage gaps aren’t hiding behind a cheaper premium
You can’t control diesel prices. You can control whether your insurance dollars are working.
