Hey everyone, welcome back to TDP Trucking News, where we break down what's been happening in trucking this past week and what to look forward to in the week ahead. Let's roll right into it. Big story this week: Volvo says the North American truck market is cooling off and could stay that way through 2026. They've lowered their forecast by about 10,000 trucks, pointing to weak freight demand, new tariffs, uncertainty around emissions rules. What it means, fewer new truck orders could tighten capacity later. Rates could shift as supply adjusts. Bottom line, be cautious when spending and plan ahead for 2026. Federal funds pulled from California. The federal government is withholding more than 40 million from California because the state hasn't enforced truck driver English proficiency rules. That puts pressure on every state to follow federal guidelines, and it could affect who's allowed to drive commercially. Takeaways carriers check your compliance files and make sure your drivers meet every requirement. 6,000 drivers sidelined. Roughly 6,000 drivers have already been pulled off the road since summer after failing the new roadside English tests. Even in a soft market, that's a major hit to available capacity. Fleet should prepare backup drivers and consider refresher training. Small rule changes can still have big effects. The 1 million tequila heist. And here's one that sounds straight out of a movie. Thieves stole two full truckloads of Santos Spirits tequila worth about a million bucks. They did it using spoofed GPS signals and a fake delivery address. Cargo theft is getting more high tech. It's not just physical anymore, it's digital too. So always make sure that you verify pickup and drop-off locations, watch for odd route changes, and keep steady contact with dispatch. Looking ahead, here's what's to keep an eye on this week. Tariffs and trade policy, any shift could raise equipment costs, freight volumes, new data will show which regions are tightened, state enforcement, expect more roadside checks. Cargo security. The tequila heist can spark new guidelines. Fuel prices, diesels bend swinging up and down so budget smart. If you're a carrier, focus on efficiency and compliance. If you're a shipper or broker, communicate early and often. And if you're behind the wheels, stay safe, stay alert, and protect your load. Before we sign off, don't miss our next episode of That's Delivered Podcast with host Trucking Ray, Road Warriors Championship Truck Driving with Calvin Logan.

We'll talk about what it takes to compete at the championship level, the discipline that keeps him sharp on long hauls and the pride that defines America's Road Warriors.
