FLD’s quarterly Fleet Manager Sentiment Index scores how top fleet managers are feeling about 7 key topics important to the industry on a 1 (not feeling positive about a subject) to 5 basis (feeling confident). Tariff uncertainty. Budget cutting. EV back peddling. The first half of 2025 has been a cauldron of disruptions, as fleets try to navigate yet another rough stretch just as it seemed the industry was settling into familiar patterns.

Note that this quarter we add a new category - safety - due to its unquestioned importance to fleets everywhere. *Mouse over any quarter to see its specific chart.
