The signals visible from the operations side of a fleet, and what a buyer can reasonably ask a seller to prove before the money moves.

Take-or-pay, when a fixed commitment is cheaper
Why committing to volume can lower a rate, when it does not, and how to size a commitment you can still meet in a bad quarter.
Operations
