OOIDA - Members Straight Trucks or Vans Only

TeamCaffee · Nov 22, 2015

Had a question from Scott Grenearth asking how many Straight Trucks & Vans are members of OOIDA?

Also wondering how many are Life Members?

If you are not a member here is the web site to see what you are missing out on:

Can't view results because I can't vote as a TT but have been a member since 2003. There should be a category for senior members 10+ years.

Sorry about that Rollincoal. Scott from OOIDA is trying to figure out how many vans or straight trucks are members. I should have at least added a line for TT as expediters.

That's ok. I do so little true expediting any more it's hardly worth claiming to be an expediter anyways. Lol. Would be interesting to see the results of how many EOL members here are with OOIDA. I see the stickers on smaller units from time to time but not often. Don't always see them on TT either. There is a misconception amongst a lot of drivers out there that one must be an owner operator to join. Which is simply not true at all. I was a company driver when I joined years ago. I don't always agree with them 100% but they are the only association drivers really have out here.

I have asked before and going to ask again. What are your benefits of joining them. I'm not talking about a nice pair of sunglasses or a free ink pen for signing up..Is this more of a PAC committee to you folks that belong, or are you really getting everyday perks? Info please.. Sell me.. What will make me join?

I have not been a member because, like so many other things in expedited, I got the idea that OOIDA is a heavyweights-only club and us van guys need not apply.

if you have a problem with a carrier they will help out
having a ooida decal on your unit will help if you are stopped at a road side check
a lot of discounts on different products , and hotels
