Now here's what I'd call an eye-catching rig...word reaches Biglorryblog that Volvo Trucks North America will continue as the sole sponsor of America's Road Team in 2010. And in case you're wondering what ART is it's a splendid idea whereby professional drivers with outstanding driving records sopeak to schools, communities and the media about highway safety and how essential trucking is the the American economy and way of life. All of which begs the question: "Why on earth don't the RHA and FTA and Unite get together and do something similar?" Meanwhile, the continuation of Volvo's sponsorship was announced today at the American Trucking Associations' (ATA) annual meeting in Las Vegas. And the truck used to carry the message is this splendid VN780, provided naturally enough by VTNA. These guys have the right idea says BLB!
