Important Notice

2012 Mid America Trucking Show One of the incentives for professional truck drivers to attend the Mid America Trucking Show (MATS) in Louisville, Kentucky, is the freebies and discounts that are given away by exhibitors. At the encouragement of one exhibitor, we have undertaken the effort to gather in one spot (our website) a list of who is giving away what at this year's event. We have designed a page on our site that serves two functions: to be the place through which exhibitors can tell us about their MATS freebies and discounts; and to be the place where drivers can follow links to find out who is giving away what. In this way, we hope to be of great service to you, our readers. Read more below.
