## Description

Series PCU484121484121 is the Bureau of Labor Statistics Producer Price Index for general freight trucking, long-distance truckload. Fleet finance teams use it as a contract escalator, and it is one of the cleaner government-data hooks in the freight category. Recent readings have run in the 150 to 180 range on the December 2003 = 100 base, with the February 2026 reading released April 14 and June data due in mid-July. With spot rates tightening through the spring and diesel still running above $5 a gallon, the upside band reflects the possibility that contract pricing finally catches up.
