Hinton,IOW,USA -The Sioux City Journal, by Tim Gallagher -September 03, 2014: -- Gary Teel emptied a load of honey at Sue Bee Honey on Wednesday morning and headed back to Weinrich Truck Line Inc., just east of Hinton... Just as he's done for 25 years, Teel completed the job with nary a scratch on his truck, or on any other motorist... The return to Weinrich this day was a bit different, however, as the company rolled out a new truck made to order by his specifications. It's his, and his alone, to drive for as long as he works for Weinrich, in recognition of his loyalty to the firm and his spotless record on the road... "Nice," said Teel, 62, as he approached the 2015 Freightliner Coronado that features a 505-HP Detroit engine, 13 speeds, air-disk brakes and more... There's a refrigerator coming, as well as a television and a microwave, if Teel wishes. The sleeper is carpeted. And, for the first time in a driving career that's covered four decades, Teel sits atop a heated seat...
