Don Ake and Jonathan Starks discuss the outlook for GDP and the truck freight market.

This Q&A response from the FTR Experts came from our May CV Update webinar. View the video and the key takeaways below. 

 
Key Takeaways:
  • A decrease in exports and inventories led to a Q1 lower than FTR's expectations, but this hasn't impacted the outlook for the rest of the year.
  • The outlook for truck freight did not change much from the previous month, and there is still considerable growth from last year.
