This young man was NOT driving a rock truck - it was a Braum's truck with a refrigerated box trailer.  This rock truck nonsense is grating on my last nerve, probably because I suspect the news agencies - with whom the Braum's company spends a LOT of advertising dollars - is being misleading to protect Braum's reputation.  If they know this young man's name, they probably also know who he was driving for and therefore he was not driving a damn rock bucket.  Everyone in that area knows the Braum's trucks roll through there every single day - on their way in & out to head south on I35.  Freedom was a night driver and was almost back to the farm when this happened.  There are rumors that his supervisor had been 'riding' him about taking too long on his deliveries.  Tragic.

Thank you for clarifying the details. I was getting very frustrated that they kept calling it a rock truck. May I ask how you knew my husband?

Pamela Hurley, your comment is the absolute truth. All the way down to the supervisor riding him to go faster on his routes.
