Tractors commemorate Schneider’s founding

San Bernardino, Calif., resident Harvey Robbins, shown in the photo, is one of 10 drivers hauling freight in Schneider’s new Freightliner tractors specially decorated for the carrier’s 75th anniversary celebration.

The front of each truck is emblazoned with Schneider’s anniversary logo to commemorate the fleet’s 1935 founding. The side decal depicts one of the carrier’s vintage trucks.

Passersby notice the truck’s bright orange decoration, Robbins says. “I get a lot of pointing and waving from people in cars driving next to me,” he told company spokespersons. “When I’m at truck stops or checkpoints, I get quite a few inquiries and comments about it. I love hearing people say, ‘Beautiful truck’ and ‘Nice truck, Schneider!’”
