Dear J.R.,

As you well know, the truck load/freight business can be a very demanding occupation. Managing the expenses like fuel, tires, insurance, maintenance, and equipment is an ongoing task due to the fact that Gordon Trucking currently operates a fleet of 800 tractors and over 2000 trailers in all 48 states. Next to fuel, tires and retreads are our second highest expense in running our fleet.

We depend upon your company and companies like it to deliver quality products as well as technical expertise and service to keep those costs in line. Through the years, we have found Phelps Tire to be a valuable partner with Gordon Trucking. Your company has worked with us to reduce operating costs, down time and fuel consumption. The Michelin tires and MRTI retreads lower the rolling resistance of our tires, thereby saving fuel, the highest expense we incur in operating our fleet.

On behalf of Gordon Trucking, we wish to express our sincere thanks for you and your company’s efforts in contributing to our success and prosperity.

Sincerely,

Morry Milsten
Pacific Terminal Manager
