Con-way Truckload Driver Reaches Three-Million-Mile Mark

JOPLIN, Mo., and ARLINGTON, Texas Con-way Truckload, a full truckload carrier and subsidiary of Con-way Inc. (NYSE: CNW), today announced that a 10th company driver has achieved the elite career milestone of three million miles of dedicated service. George Cook of Arlington, Texas, was recognized for his accomplishment at an April 4 ceremony at the company's Joplin, Mo., headquarters.

"Reaching three million miles of driving is an impressive accomplishment — it's the equivalent of traveling the circumference of the Earth 120 times,” said Herb Schmidt, president of Con-way Truckload. "After three million miles with us, George's dedication to safety and customer service speak for themselves. We are proud to have him as a Con-way Truckload driver.”

Cook drove the three million miles between 1986 and 2009. A professional driver for 31 years, he has driven for Con-way Truckload for 23 years and typically drives a route between Dallas and El Paso, Texas. The company has previously honored Cook with awards for reaching one and two million miles, as company driver of the month for four years in a row and as company driver of the year for the past three years.

"You don't get to three million miles without a lot of other people helping you,” Cook said of his achievement. "I love my country, my family and my job.”

Cook currently lives in Arlington, Texas, with his wife of 29 years, Tani. The couple has six children and 10 grandchildren. In his spare time, he enjoys flying, fishing and bowling.
