Capacity· power units = haulable capacity; trailers are towed
Capacity is power units only — trailers are towed equipment and are never summed into a fleet-size figure.
Fleet age· model years · decoded VINs
Revealed by inspection density across 8 states · 24 mo
Operating footprint· revealed by roadside-inspection geography
Inspection density by state· each tile = a state · shade = inspections, last 24 mo
Affiliated entities & reincarnation signals · for review, not a verdict
No shared-identity links detected — no reincarnation flag, shared trucks, registration domain, or officer overlap with other carriers.
Capacity consistency· registered vs roadside-observed power units
Registered capacity materially exceeds what is observed roadside — the MCS-150 may be stale or the fleet under-utilized.
