Beauty comes from within. I am a proud American truck driver and wife of a 20 year veteran truck driver and the mother of a USAF Airman. After my sons graduated, I came out on the road with my husband. I loved it so much that I decided to get my CDL. I have met some of the most amazing people. Truck drivers are truly amazing and honorable people. And, I love being able to say I am an American truck driver.

Owner-operator Raiko Graveran might be the 'nicest dude in all of trucking,' a version of which has been said by more than one truck showgoer who's found him and his 1995 Freightliner FLD 120 parked up. Here he's showing off fairly recent wins at the Old Town Rig Down event in Nacogdoches, Texas. Look for Graveran out at the Stars, Stripes and White Lines event this week in Atlanta.

RGT Transport owner Graveran came to the United States in '08 on a raft from Cuba, ultimately able to gain legal permanent resident status with the immigration policy of the time. Today, he's the proud owner of a multi-award-winning custom '95 FLD flattop that cuts a unique picture on the show circuit.
