Fleet-Saving Decisions: Leadership Insights from TCA 2026

What did the last 4 years in this market teach us that we can't afford to forget?

Randy Marten | CEO & Chairman of Marten Transport Pam Wiers | CFO of Dutch Maid Logistics Ken Johnson | Executive Chairman of Leonard's Express Ashley Kordish | CEO of Ralph Moyle, Inc. Luke Subler| President of Classic Carriers & Immediate Past Chairman of TCA Refrigerated Division The conversations are honest, practical, and shaped by experience. They discuss why protecting margins sometimes means saying no to freight, why knowing your costs has never been more important, how strong customer relationships outperform short-term pricing decisions, and why many fleets still have a long road ahead even as rates begin to improve. Whether you lead a fleet, manage operations, oversee finance, or make strategic decisions for a transportation company, this episode is a valuable perspective from leaders who have weathered decades of industry cycles and aren't afraid to share what worked, what didn't, and what comes next.
