And TODAY is when most everyone wants everything else—and thanks to TRUCKS, that's when they get it. Trucks have a mission like newspapers. Housewives, man ufacturers, farmers, merchants (and even newspaper pub lishers) want the products they need today, today. Trucks get 'em there. Trucking equipment is many, many times better than it was just a few years ago—and the know-how of making that equipment work for better service has improved many fold. Without trucks, most of Nebraska's towns and cities would have a tough time of getting what they need today tomorrow ... or even next week.
