The Best Fleets to Drive For survey and contest was open to any fleet operating 10 or more trucks, regardless of TCA-membership status.

For the two weeks leading up to the announcement of the overall winners, clues about the winners' identities were posted to TCA's Facebook page--http://www.truckload.org/Facebook--and Tweeted from @TCANews--http://www.truckload.org/Twitter--with the hashtag #BestFleets14.
