WHAT THE TRUCK?!? EP857 Shell Starship 3.0 joins racing series; $275M for truck parking; driver pay down

On episode 857 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!? Dooner is talking about a big draw down in driver wages and earnings. ATRI calls it, “The highest costs ever recorded by ATRI for non-fuel operating costs.” Is it going to be a summer of struggle for truckers and fleets? Shell’s Supertruck 3.0 is off to the races. Shell’s Scott Burian tells us all about the truck and its role on the race circuit pulling the Pennzoil Tech Inspection Trailer for the rest of the 2025 season. Secretary Duffy joined the show last week to break news about $275 million going towards truck parking. Truck Parking Club’s Reed Loustalot drops by the studio to talk about how it will help drivers park safely. We’ll also learn about his move to Chattanooga and how they’re putting the club in Truck Parking Club.
