On Episode 711 of WHAT THE TRUCK?!?, Dooner is talking to Offshift’s Dr. Mark Manera about driver health. Do truckers have a ticking time bomb in their chest? We’ll find out how America’s road warriors can set their GPS toward better health.

FreightWaves’ Thomas Wasson looks at market health. A slew of bankruptcies, layoffs and disappointing earnings reports has struck the industry this spring. Will the beatings continue until morale improves?

Roadtex’s Frank Hurst breaks down big-box retail on-time in-full requirements. We’ll also see how LTL is holding up in this weak market.
