🦃 This Thanksgiving, we're feeling extra grateful for YOU—our incredible members! As we gather around the table to enjoy a holiday meal, let’s take a moment to recognize the behind-the-scenes heroes of Thanksgiving: the supply chain professionals, technicians, and drivers who keep everything moving. Did you know that in 2024, the U.S. turkey supply chain transported 46 million turkeys for Thanksgiving alone? That’s 28,750 truckloads, with each truck carefully carrying about 20 pallets of turkeys—many in refrigerated units to keep them safe and fresh. 🚛❄️ This impressive feat highlights the importance of the heavy-duty trucks, skilled professionals, and innovative solutions that make such large-scale logistics possible. To our members in the auto care industry: thank you for keeping vehicles road-ready and supply chains strong—not just during the holidays, but all year long. Your work ensures families across the country can enjoy traditions like Thanksgiving dinner, and for that, we are endlessly grateful. 🙏 Wishing everyone a safe and joyful holiday! #Thanksgiving #Gratitude #Automotiveaftermarket #HeavyDutyTrucks #autocare
