Personal drive, clear focus on long-term business stability, mechanical aptitude with late-model equipment, and the willingness share all he learns -- the good and the bad. Did we mention 10-plug mpg? All are outstanding qualities you'll find in Overdrive's Trucker of the Year, John Penn.

John Treadway's 'Teal Appeal' 1998 Peterbilt 379 and 2017 Great Dane reefer won big in Overdrive's 2025 Pride & Polish, picking up top honors in Interior and Working Combo.
