My BIL drives a truck for a major food supplier. He goes all over the US. He owns the truck. Monthly fuel bill is over $2000 - $3000 a month. And no the company does not take the hit. He does. Independent truck operator. Now he does make a really good salary but he did not start driving for fun. He's also a licensed diver and master welder so he's in this driving for the money.
He told the family to get prepping as soon as possible because there will be major disruptions to the supply chain. There is plenty of everything but absorbing these fuel prices will be the reason some drivers will walk away. Concentrate on pantry items, supplements, pet food, bottled water, 
paper goods, household items things like that. Cold food you can just get as you need but to make sure you get enough each time you buy. What's affordable now may not be soon and may even be hard to find.
He is not one to raise alarm bells. He's been doing this for 3 years now and it's the first time he's ever said anything. He said summer is looking bleak meaning prices are already set to explode. Companies will hold back items just to hurt your wallet. We've all seen this before.
Don't slap my hand for this message. I'm just passing along from the front line of operations. If you agree good. If not that's okay too. I just care about everyone.
Peace.
