The nation is gearing up to celebrate the truckers who keep America moving this month with National Truck Driver Appreciation Week, Sept. 10-16. During the week, trucking companies, truck stops and other industry leaders will offer driver celebrations and discounts to show appreciation for truckers.
If you’d like to celebrate on your own by attending a truck show this month, there are plenty of options. The new North American Commercial Vehicle Show will debut in Atlanta Sept. 25-28, and the American Truck Historical Society (ATHS) is taking advantage of the cooler temperatures to host antique truck shows throughout the month.
