Cari Baylor, vice president of Baylor Trucking, challenged the trucking industry last week to the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, and Pilot Flying J gladly accepted its turn to get soaked with ice cold water for a great cause. In turn, Pilot Flying J also challenged the entire trucking industry to help support ALS through the Ice Bucket Challenge.
