Since October 2014, the Trucking Moves America Forward campaign has continued to gain notoriety in bringing to the forefront the importance of the trucking industry. Specifically, TMAF has helped to create awareness that “trucking” is more than trucks on the highway moving from point to point with no real understanding about the industry they represent. Their millions of people involved, represent. Every day trucks and professional truck drivers travel across the United States serving millions of people, moving America forward. Whether you are a student, mother, homeowner, doctor, business execu- tive or politician, you depend on trucks to deliver essential foods, medi- cines, office supplies, computers, cribs, and other products that help you live every day. Most Americans don’t realize how essential trucks are to their lives until there is severe weather or adverse condition that prevents trucks from delivering. But the fact is trucks are critical to our national and global economy, to our families, to our businesses and so much more. When they stop moving, the country stops moving. By telling our story — educating the public and working with policy- makers at the state and federal level — we can ensure that the truck- ing industry remains the thriving industry it is today.

Thank you, Dallas Barnes and Uhl Truck Sales of Louisville, for always stepping up to the plate in a truly admirable role in industry leadership.
