DON MILLS, Ont. – Truck News, Truck West and Motortruck, the Canadian trucking industry’s leaders in news and business information, have updated their Web presence at trucknews.com.

“We’re constantly pushing the cyber bar to new heights,” says Rob Wilkins, Truck News publisher. “With our new design we build off our recent migration to an Oracle-based system and open even more doors for future enhancements.”

Two new features have been added to the site: an online Oil Spec’ing Guide, a Web site finder and direct links through the online careers section.

“Our Oil Spec’ing Guide delivers all of the information you need to pick your next engine lube,” says John Curran, Truck News editor. “In addition, you’ll also be able see the latest news from North America’s leading suppliers and related feature stories written by our industry-leading editorial team.”

The Web site finder will allow readers to quickly access select suppliers and manufacturers currently serving the trucking community.

“Our new site reflects the ever-evolving state of the wired world,” says Curran. “Our in-house development team has devoted a great deal of time and effort to giving you – our readers – a site that not only looks better, but one that offers increased functionality, as well.”

In the trucknews.com careers section, surfers can click on hotlinks located directly beside the advertisements of participating fleets in order to glean as much information about a prospective new employer as possible.

“We added the links to our online career section for the benefit of our readers and the trucking community in general,” says Kathy Penner, Truck News operations manager.

“Before switching jobs, it is important for drivers and O/Os to do their homework. Going into a new job with blinders on is a recipe for disaster.” n
