Obviously we all know the trucking industry is massive, accounting for roughly $600 billion in revenue. But what does that mean in human terms? Some of the facts in easy to understand terms, which might surprise you (or might not) are:
The worlds largest truck stop, Iowa 80 serves 5,000 customers a day who use 55 miles of toilet paper per month.
Those same customers drink 2 million cups of coffee each year, the equivalent of 18 tanker trucks or 125,000 gallons.
Iowa 80 customers consume 17 million eggs a year. That’s enough eggs to stretch from Washington D.C. to Atlanta, Georgia.
The average truck driver travels enough in a year to drive around the Entire earth 6 times.
