Michigan power only rate history
All-in rateFuel cost per mile
A Power only leaving Michigan averaged $3.66 a mile all-in in October 2026, +20.0% against the national $3.05. Loads arriving averaged $2.67. Michigan is a headhaul market: trucks leaving cost more than trucks arriving, because more freight is looking for a ride out than there are trucks delivering in.
State history applies today's Michigan adjustment to the national series back to 2003.
