California sprinter rate history
All-in rateFuel cost per mile
A Sprinter van leaving California averaged $1.92 a mile all-in in October 2026, +37.1% against the national $1.40. Loads arriving averaged $1.18. California 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 California adjustment to the national series back to 2003.
