Why High Diesel Prices Could Make Almost Everything More Expensive
Diesel isn’t just another fuel at the pump. It’s one of the fuels that keeps the American economy moving. Trucks haul much of the nation’s freight, while diesel also powers equipment critical to agriculture, construction, and other industries.
In this TechMobility Topics segment, we examine why refining constraints and tightening diesel supplies can quickly become everybody’s problem. When fuel costs rise, trucking and agricultural expenses climb—and those increases can work their way through supply chains into groceries, manufactured goods, shipping, and retail prices.
That makes diesel an important part of the inflation conversation.
You may never buy a gallon of diesel yourself, but when its price spikes, there’s a good chance you’ll pay for it somewhere else.

What If Satellites Could Plug Into a Power Grid in Space?
What if a power-starved satellite didn’t have to rely entirely on its own solar panels? Wireless power beaming could eventually turn space itself into an energy network, transmitting electricity where and when spacecraft need it.
During this TechMobility Topics segment, we explore whether orbital power grids could support satellites, spacecraft, and potentially energy-hungry data centers in space. The concept could change how we design and operate orbital infrastructure by separating where electricity is generated from where it is consumed.
But beaming energy across space introduces serious questions about efficiency, interference, safety, ownership, and regulation.
If electricity can be transmitted through space on demand, who controls the power grid when there are no national borders?

2026 Subaru Trailseeker: How Much Subaru Is Really Underneath?
The 2026 Subaru Trailseeker Touring EV wears a Subaru badge, but its family tree tells a much bigger story about how modern vehicles are developed and built.
In this TechMobility Topics segment, I get behind the wheel of the Trailseeker and explore its Toyota connections, shared EV architecture, and what platform sharing means for buyers. I also dig into what matters once the technology becomes your daily driver: its wagon-like practicality, huge 14-inch display, NACS charging compatibility, range expectations, and overall usability.
I like plenty, but some omissions are frustrating—including no spare tire and no frunk.
The Trailseeker raises an interesting question: As automakers increasingly share platforms and technology, how much does the badge on the hood still tell you about the vehicle you’re actually buying?
