Lets brainstorm on how to get semi-truck drivers to get involved with the revolution and put signs on the sides of their trucks.

I mean these guys drive all over the US and could easily put signs on their trucks.

Just think about how huge RP could get if we got this done......

Where to start?

Ehh I think most of them are required to put their company logos and such on the side of their trucks.

Yeah I used to drive truck and what anyone can do is hang out at the nearest truck stop. Bring with you a couple hundred bumper stickers and offer a couple to every trucker you meet. If one in ten accept them you have accomplished a lot for the campaign without a large expenditure of money. Just offer them for free to any trucker who is willing to stick them on their cab. Many truckers are owner/operators and they are most likely to agree to do this. They listen to the radio a lot and so that will most likely be the basis of their political views. Be armed with good answers to trucker type issues and you should be successful.

50-100? That would be clear overkill... :eek:

TruckinMike is the example I used (sorry Mike) to convey to a bunch of Euros why this thing is working - it worked. There are many, many others, of course, but they don't have CaptainParker to help them out...

I was thinking the same thing. Probably the truckers that are independent and private can do this.

The northeast is full of salt covered trucks, and there are truck stops everywhere. Why not just pull into a truck stop and write in the dirt on back of all the trucks that are lined up 'sleeping'. No truck driver is going to wake from his slumber and decide to go check the freight in back of the truck.

I wouldn't wanna get caught doing this though.

A good talking point is the NAFTA Superhighway, as if it goes as planned, many truckers' jobs will be endangered.
