Melton Truck Lines, Inc. Named a Best Fleet to Drive For

TULSA, Okla - February 8, 2010 - Melton Truck Lines, a premier air-ride
flatbed carrier based in Tulsa, OK, was recently named a Best Fleet to Drive
For by the Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) for the second year in a
row. Seventeen fleets were chosen for this prestigious award.

Best Fleets to Drive For is an annual survey and contest identifying
the North American for-hire trucking companies that provide the best
workplace experiences for their drivers. To qualify, carriers had to be
nominated by at least one of their drivers. Carriers were then evaluated on
performance in areas such as benefits, professional development, driver and
community support, safety record and company culture. The survey focused on
the range and depth of offered programs, the overall effectiveness of those
programs across key metrics, and the responses of surveyed drivers.

"The Best Fleets to Drive For is identifying the gold standard when
it comes to a driver's work environment," TCA President Chris Burress said.
"The data that has emerged from the survey has been very useful to the
industry in terms of identifying trends and where things are headed."

"At Melton Truck Lines, driver services is a priority. We are
honored to be named a Best Fleet to Drive For two years in a row," said
Angie Buchanan, Vice President of Safety & Human Resources. "We put
together a mix of programs like the President's Clubs, Lifeworks, ICARE
Wellness Program, Driver of the Month and Year, Safety Rewards Programs, Top
Fuel Recognition and Bonus Program to name a few. We challenge ourselves
every day to develop and maintain programs that make drivers feel like a
part of the family and be recognized for a job well done. We know that
professional drivers have choices and we want them to choose Melton."
