T-U Driver Ambassador

T-U Driver Ambassadors are T-U Drivers who exemplify an incredible commitment to the industry and have a proven track record of service and safety. These drivers are handpicked by the President (of T-U) to represent and be the voice for ALL T-U drivers. Over-the-road drivers have a unique experience and are often not appreciated in the trucking industry. We want to support drivers and believe the best way to do this is by collaborating with the drivers themselves. We have found that offering drivers an opportunity to speak their mind, while listening to and implementing their ideas, is the best way to support them for the long-haul.

T-U Ambassadors Council

On April 24, 2021, we conducted our 1st T-U Driver’s Council. This was a formal meeting, held with our Driver Ambassadors at our corporate office. The purpose of the Ambassadors Council is to have the voice for drivers come together and give input on our drivers experience with us. Our goal in conducting this council was to gain a better perspective from our drivers, so we can better assist towards their happiness and success. Optimizing a drivers life on the road makes for a better employee and customer experience all around. With a strong focus towards T-U’s performance and commitment to the drivers who serve our customers, we believe we can have extremely high retention rates through raw honesty and doing the things that make a driver successful and profitable.

Being humble and Truckismo minded, we know that the driver’s experience serving customers in the field is unique and valuable. We are not naïve to believing office people are best equipped to make informed decisions for drivers who serve our customers in the field so we get this input directly from drivers themselves.
