Fort Wayne, Indiana — August 7, 2025 — The North American Council for Freight Efficiency (NACFE) posted three of the 13 fleet profiles for Run on Less – Messy Middle. The videos detail Wegman’s operation in Rochester, NY with a Peterbilt 567 day cab with a Cummins X15N engine using natural gas; Pilot’s operation in Rialto, CA with a Hyundai XCEINT hydrogen fuel cell day cab tractor; and Saia’s operation in Stockton, CA with a battery electric Tesla Semi day cab tractor.

Each fleet has its own profile page which includes a video from visits to fleet locations by NACFE staff, driver introductions and details on the truck being followed during the Run and fueling/charging details unique to each truck.

“We plan to post three profiles with videos per week highlighting each of the 13 fleets throughout August,” says Mike Roeth, NACFE’s executive director. “Each fleet was unique, and we encourage you to review the profiles and watch all the videos to gain a better understanding of how fleets are making these powertrain solutions work today in their businesses.”
