Well, after eight long months I am able to make this post and share with you in detail about a special project we have been working on here at ExpeditersOnline.com since Expedite Expo ’06.
If you don’t have plans to attend the Mid-America Trucking Show this week in Louisville – you may want to make them now.
On Thursday March 22, 2007 in the ExpeditersOnline.com Booth 6755 at the center of The Expediter Experience area in the West Wing we will reveal the Heavy Duty Class 8 Expediter Truck tricked-out by The Chrome Shop Mafia (the group made famous from Country Music Television's "Trick My Truck" series).
The Supertruck will be the centerpiece display in The Expediter Experience at MATS. Donated by Indiana Truck Sales of Indianapolis, the 2000 Mack CX613 tractor is stretched to an expediter wheelbase of 317 inches featuring an air-ride chassis and cab, and powered by a 460 horsepower Mack E-7 engine with a 10-speed Mack transmission.
Alumi-Bunk, based out of Woodhaven, Michigan, joined the project by donating and installing a 22-foot cargo box.
Over 400 man hours went into the Supertruck's incredible custom painting and striping job featuring a drag-racing theme. Custom chrome and interior work was also performed by the Chrome Shop Mafia.
Following MATS the Supertruck will begin a nationwide tour sponsored by Bolt Express and driven by EO's own forum moderator, Rich Moore. The Supertruck will be on display not only at Speedco locations, but also at expedite carrier driver appreciation events.
After MATS, through June 27, drivers can register to win the Supertruck at tour locations, as well as at all Speedco locations across the United States, and at any Alumi-Bunk location.
Six finalists will be selected in a random drawing and will receive an all expenses paid trip to the 7th annual Expedite Expo in Wilmington, Ohio, July 27 and 28.
An additional six finalists will be selected in a random drawing during the Expo from all eligible expo attendees.
Each finalist will receive a key to the Supertruck, and the finalist whose key starts the Supertruck wins the grand prize.
A first prize of Yokohama tires, a second prize of Speedco Preventive Maintenance for one year, and a third prize of a $500 Shell gift card will be awarded in another drawing.
I would like to thank the following sponsors who made the project possible.

Music soothes the savage beast - unless it's polka.
Going to church makes you a Christian about as much as standing in the garage makes you a car
You can build a man a fire and keep him warm for a day or you can set a man on fire and keep him warm for the rest of his life.
