Tennessee power only rate history
All-in rateFuel cost per mile
A Power only leaving Tennessee averaged $3.12 a mile all-in in October 2026, +2.3% against the national $3.05. Loads arriving averaged $2.92. Tennessee 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 Tennessee adjustment to the national series back to 2003.
