TravelCenters of America announced the formation of the TA Truck Service Commercial Tire Network to meet increased customer demand for flexible, efficient sourcing of commercial tires.

Love’s Travel Stops & Country Stores Inc. will expand its truck maintenance program at all of its truck stops nationwide to include services related to fluids, filters and lubes, in addition to existing truck tire care and light mechanical options.

If you’re road-tripping this holiday weekend, you’re in good company. With U.S. gasoline prices the lowest in more than a decade, July 4 travelers are expected to hit the road in record numbers.

Truck stop operator TravelCenters of America confirmed June 16 it had rejected a nonbinding letter in December from a private equity firm asking to have confidential discussions about that firm possibly buying TA.

U.S. motor travel surged at a record pace in February as Americans took to the road again after January's historic snowstorms, U.S. data released April 25 showed, fueling optimism about gasoline demand as refiners brace for the busy summer driving season.

U.S. road travel rose by 4% in the nation's warmest December on record, government data showed Feb. 22, and capped a record-setting driving renaissance buoyed by inexpensive gasoline and lower unemployment.

TravelCenters of America’s second-quarter net income fell 72% to $3.77 million, or 10 cents per share, due to lower profits from fuel sales and one-time costs such as debt repayment.
