Podcast: How does the averted shutdown affect you?
The federal government is staying open for a while, giving Congress time to figure out annual spending bills. But how does the averted shutdown affect you? Also, there were lots of custom show trucks at the Guilty By Association Truck Show, but some delivered more than just eye-catching details. We spoke with drivers who use their trucks to spread awareness. And a new month means a new issue of Land Line Magazine. AEBs, OOIDA’s 50th and a unique trucking connection to the band Alabama were just a few of the topics covered in the October issue.
