You made it: 2024 is finally over, and the promise and potential of a new year are upon us. This past year in trucking and transportation came with many challenges and opportunities for fleets, manufacturers, and suppliers.

We wish you and your team a happy New Year and a prosperous 2025. We at FleetOwner are excited and ready to continue providing you with industry news, analysis, and coverage to help your operations flourish in the second half of this transformational decade.

The editorial and advertising teams at FleetOwner have already mapped out our 2025 route, which will include our usual coverage of industry topics from regulations to safety, equipment, technology, efficiency, emissions, and trucking operations to meet every duty cycle from heavy-duty long-haul trucking to light-duty final-mile delivery—and everything in between.

Whether you are running a for-hire or private fleet, hauling truckloads or running LTL, operating food service or other refrigerated cold chains, or working in construction, bulk, or other fields, we’re excited to keep you informed on the latest equipment, technology, products, ideas, and more that can help give your fleet the edge to finish 2025 in the black.

You can already download the FleetOwner 2025 Media Kit, which includes our editorial calendar, audience demographics, and more about this great industry.

Over the past couple of weeks, we’ve counted down our most popular 2024 online content in various categories. We’ll finish that drive down memory lane tomorrow with our top stories of the year as the holiday week wraps up. Consider it our own precheck as we fuel up for the long haul that is the next 52 weeks.

A look back at the most popular FleetOwner.comm topics of 2024

In 2024, we published several popular features and research projects about the trucking and transportation industries. These include our annual looks at the largest commercial transportation systems in the U.S., the FleetOwner 500: For-Hire and FleetOwner 500: Private Fleets.

Our annual profiles of women in the industry, Women in Transportation 2024, were published this summer. Each year, FleetOwner recognizes the transportation operations of private fleets with the FleetOwner Private Fleet of the Year award. This fall, we expanded and rebranded our annual New Models to the 2025 FleetOwner vehicle guide, our largest-ever look at the next generation of heavy-duty, medium-duty, light-duty, and alternative-powered trucks and vans.

We put a bow on the year with the 2024 Trucking by the Numbers feature, an info-graphical look at the facts and figures that make up the trucking and transportation industries.
