Mack Trucks customizes Ride for Freedom truck to salute fallen military heroes

May 27, 2016

To pay tribute to America’s fallen military personnel, Mack Trucks employees will once again participate in the Rolling Thunder – Ride for Freedom rally.

The 29th annual rally will take place over Memorial Day weekend in Washington, D.C. Mack Lehigh Valley Operations and Mack Customer Center employees will travel from Pennsylvania by truck and motorcycle to Hagerstown, Md., for a special memorial ceremony at Mack’s powertrain facility. Hagerstown employees will then join their colleagues following the ceremony as they continue to Washington, D.C. to join thousands of other Ride for Freedom participants.

Mack’s Ride for Freedom truck, a customized Mack Pinnacle Axle Forward Rawhide Edition, features custom graphics that honor each branch of the U.S. Armed Forces, along with the quote, “America, Home of the Free Because of the Brave.”
