Volvo Trucks Salutes Hard Working Drivers With A Holiday Dinner on Dec. 24
Wednesday. December 10. 2008
The trucking industry operates 24/7, 365 days a year, delivering to hospitals and other essential services. This means some drivers end up on the road over the holidays, rather than being with their families. Volvo Trucks North America salutes these drivers and will show its appreciation by providing them a free dinner on Christmas Eve.
All a driver needs to do is stop at any of the 163 participating Flying J travel plazas in the U.S. and Canada between 5 and 7 p.m. on December 24. They will receive a free turkey buffet dinner and beverage simply by showing their commercial drivers license.
"Truck drivers deserve our thanks," said Scott Kress, Volvo Trucks senior vice president - sales & marketing. "They really are unsung heros, and they are also our customers. So in this holiday season, with economic hardship affecting so many, Volvo Trucks wants to recognize truckers working on Christmas Eve. With our partners, Michelin and Flying J, we are giving away a hot turkey dinner to any driver on the job at a time when most of us are luckey enough to be with our families."
