Having said good-byes at MATS, The Spirit heads to Antioch, Tenn.

It was great to see everybody at the Mid-America Trucking Show in Louisville, Ky., but at the show’s end it was time for The Spirit of the American Trucker, OOIDA’s tour truck, to head out for Antioch, Tenn.

Jon Osburn, skipper of The Spirit, plans to set up at the Antioch TA truck stop at Exit 62 on I-24. It is some 200 miles from the Kentucky Exposition Center in Louisville.

Jon plans to be in Antioch through March 28.

Antioch is southwest of Nashville, Tenn. There are 122 truck parking spots at the TA truck stop there, 61 of them reserved spots, according to their website.

When he pulls The Spirit out of the parking lot at Antioch, Jon will be bound for Georgia.

Whenever you see The Spirit tour truck, go up and say hello to Jon. He enjoys visiting about the Association’s activities and current issues. You can also join or renew your OOIDA membership for $10 off the regular price there. Also, you can get vouchers for flu, shingles and pneumonia vaccines from Jon at The Spirit.
