Landstar awarded a new 2026 Freightliner® Cascadia® truck to New Million Mile Safe Driver George Eason from Owensboro, Kentucky. The annual truck giveaway is the highlight of Landstar’s BCO All-Star Celebration, which was held earlier this month in Savannah, Georgia. 

The All-Star Truck Giveaway is exclusively reserved for Landstar Million Mile Safe Drivers and Roadstar® honorees – the designation awarded to the “best of the best” for high levels of safety, productivity and excellence in customer service. Each of the truck owner-operators has driven at least one million consecutive miles with Landstar without a preventable accident. It is the 51st truck Landstar has given away in its history and the 14th truck given specifically to a Landstar Million Mile Safe Driver or Roadstar recipient. This year’s truck was co-sponsored by Comdata, and the prize includes all registration fees and taxes paid by Landstar. 

“We are pleased to continue the annual tradition of giving away a new truck to one of Landstar’s best and safest owner-operators. The safety-first mindset of Landstar independent owner-operators who have reached the Million Mile Safe Driver and Roadstar milestones deserves to be celebrated,” said Landstar President and CEO Frank Lonegro. “Our congratulations to George on winning the giveaway truck, and our thanks for having safely driven one million miles while leased to Landstar. George and his fellow Million Milers and Roadstars help set the industry standard for safety and service excellence.”

Before Eason’s name was drawn as the truck winner, that same evening he was inducted as a new Landstar Million Mile Safe Driver.

Earning the opportunity to be in the pool of more than 1,000 eligible Landstar Million Mile Safe Drivers is no accident, but actually winning the truck is pure luck. Eason was one of four finalists randomly drawn from the pool of Landstar owner-operators eligible to win the truck. Then, on stage at the ceremony, the finalists each selected one of four boxes, only one of which contained the key to the new truck. Upon winning, Eason told the audience how grateful he was to win the prize. “It’s going to make a lot of things happen for me,” said Eason. “I just can’t stop thanking Landstar. It’s unbelievable!”

Landstar welcomed Randy Morgan, Comdata President, North America Trucking/Enterprise to the stage to help with the All-Star Truck Giveaway. Morgan personally congratulated Eason on his big win. "It's a privilege to be involved with an event and organization like Landstar that acknowledges the skills and dedication of the men and women who play a crucial role in making the roads safer for us all,” said Morgan.  

"We appreciate the support of our sponsors, like Comdata, for helping us recognize and reward our independent owner-operators with the chance to win a life-changing prize,” Lonegro said
