Trucking Industry Delivers 88% of Nation’s Freight
Congestion on Highways will Increase as Economic Growth Outpaces Infrastructure
With Higher Freight Demand, More Trucks and Heightened Emissions Are Expected
ATE is an Environmental Mitigation Tool For Expansion and Development

Freight Volatility - higher in 2007
Fleet Consolidation – big fleets continue to acquire smaller fleets
Retail Diesel Fuel Prices
$3.82/gal. national average last week
$2.69/gal. for the same week in 2007 (an annual increase of more than 40%)
Driver Turnover – 120%+ annually with a shortage of drivers
16
Network of Locations
Site Selection Criteria Interstate highway or other primary freight lane High quality driver amenities i.e. good hot food, clean hot showers Minimum 50 ATE spaces; 35% - 40% of total parking spaces 3 - 5 day survey of trucks parked and idling at the site
Fleet Importance Convenient to “Freight Lanes” and Customer deliveries Avoids “Out of Route” Driving Costs IdleAire value proposition: cost savings, driver retention / recruitment, remote training
Driver Importance Convenient to freight lanes and available within HOS constraints Availability = more frequent use
Travel Center Importance Consistent products and services across brand Building strong business relationships
Network of Locations is Critical to Success
