  1. 2012 Great American Trucking Show

    One of the incentives for professional truck drivers to attend the Great American Trucking Show (GATS) in Dallas, Texas, is the freebies and discounts that are given away by exhibitors. Just as we did for the 2012 Mid America Trucking Show, we have undertaken the effort to gather in one spot (our website) a list of who is giving away what at this year's GATS.

    We have designed a page on our site that serves two functions:
    1. to be the place through which exhibitors can tell us about their GATS freebies and discounts; and
    2. 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.

  2. Get and Share Great Money Saving Tips for Truck Drivers

    Every professional truck driver has a story about saving money or spending too much money in trucking. While we share our own successes and bone-headed mistakes on our website to help you, our site isn't just about us. Our goal is for our site to become a clearinghouse of how truckers around the world save money. Perhaps you've mastered something we haven't or you have knowledge about something we don't.

    We invite you to share
    • your review of a product or service marketed and sold to truck drivers,
    • your experience regarding a truck part you've used,
    • your experience at a truck stop or
    • your personal experience (your story) in dealing with money on the road as a trucker.

    So, what's your truck driver money saving tip?

  3. Truck Drivers Blog

    Since our last email newsletter, we have posted snippets through our Truck Drivers Blog from over 100 articles about how truckers can save money or are being forced to spend more money. We do the research and work so that you don't have to. While it takes a lot of time and all of the content is free, we are honored to serve you in this way.

    If you prefer, you can use your favorite news feed reader to read our XML file. By subscribing to the news feed, you can see the most recent posts on our web page linked above.

  4. Do You Like Our Content? Please Spread the Word.

    If you find value in our website, social networking outlets, news feed or this email newsletter, please spread the word in whatever way is most convenient for you. (Please support our sponsors, too.) We constantly seek to over-deliver value to help professional truck drivers worldwide save money. So we suggest that you Thanks.
