Autonomous Trucks
DALLAS — The truck stop and travel center industry is on the cusp of change as evolution in fuels and mobility are poised to usher in a new landscape. Echoing the need to raise the industry's collective voice amidst change, NATSO 2023 Chairman Jim Hays said he is looking forward to getting many things done this year. In 2023, NATSO's mission remains the same: to help advance truck stop and travel center operators and offer solutions to the challenges the industry faces, he said. "A lot of wealthy entities are parking their money in the truck stop industry. A plus for the truck stop and travel center industry is that it will take longer to transition away from diesel than gasoline, and the industry makes more money from diesel.
