George Eason, a professional truck driver from Owensboro, Kentucky, has joined an elite group of Landstar Million Mile Safe Drivers—and walked away with a brand-new 2026 Freightliner Cascadia. The truck was awarded during Landstar’s annual BCO All-Star Celebration, held earlier this month in Savannah, Georgia.
The highly anticipated All-Star Truck Giveaway is a signature event for Landstar, exclusively honoring its Million Mile Safe Drivers and Roadstar recipients. These designations recognize drivers who exemplify exceptional safety records, productivity, and outstanding customer service.
To qualify for this prestigious honor, drivers must achieve at least one million consecutive accident-free miles with Landstar. This year’s giveaway marked the 51st truck awarded in Landstar’s history and the 14th specifically presented to a Million Mile Safe Driver or Roadstar honoree.
A Night to Remember
The 2026 Freightliner Cascadia, co-sponsored by Comdata, came with all registration fees and taxes fully covered by Landstar. The giveaway was the highlight of the evening, but for Eason, the night was doubly special. Earlier in the event, he was officially inducted as a Landstar Million Mile Safe Driver.
Eason’s journey to winning the truck involved a bit of suspense. He was one of four finalists randomly selected from a pool of eligible Landstar owner-operators. On stage, each finalist chose one of four boxes, only one of which contained the key to the new Cascadia. When Eason opened his box and found the winning key, his life changed in an instant.
This annual celebration not only rewards excellence but also underscores Landstar’s commitment to safety and its appreciation for the dedication of its drivers.
