TDT truck wins Best of Show in Mid-America Truck Show competition
April 4, 2006 -- Clint Dicks of TDT Trucking in Lake City,
Fla., says he’s “tickled to death” with his Best in Show placement
in two categories at the Mid-America Truck Show in Louisville, Ky.,
March 23-25.
Dicks received Best of Show in the Combo/Limited Mileage Division
and placed first in the Best Peterbilt category. “I have been so
excited,” says Dicks. “We put a lot of time and energy into getting
the truck ready so it’s great that it paid off this way.”
According to Dicks, the truck received a new coat of paint on the
frame, customized stainless and chrome and a thorough cleaning.
“The judges were very meticulous,” he said. “They gave it the white
cloth test.”
The judges evaluated entries based on cleanliness, chrome, and
detailing among other criteria.
Dicks won out over nine other entries, four of which had won Best
in Show previously. “My father [founder Terry Dicks] was so nervous
during the judging, he couldn’t sit down the whole time,” said
Dicks. “But he was as proud as the rest of us when they gave us the
award.”
For his showing, Dicks was awarded a Waterford crystal bowl with
a custom wood and stainless base by Rockford products, plus
$500.
TDT, Inc., a 24-year-old transportation company serving the
continental United States, gets its drivers and owner operators home frequently during
the week. “Most of our drivers get home every night or every other
night,” says Dicks. “They get home at least every weekend.”
The company specializes in designing personalized transportation solutions for companies that use flatbed, van, and curtain-side equipment.
