On the Road Again
Dallas, TX. June 28, 2024:
PRE-Q® GALGO Corporation hit the road to promote retreading at not one, but two school bus trade shows, back-to-back, over the course of two weeks.
The first show, the Illinois Association for Pupil Transportation Conference & Trade Show in Springfield, IL, on June 19, 2024, was a resounding success with a record-breaking attendance. This high level of interest in retreading is a clear indication of the growing recognition of its benefits.
"Working with our valued dealer partners Ron Kruzan, and Aydin Coulter with K.C. Sales, we spread the news about how retreading can help them with their tight budgets and the fact that the myths about retreads have been debunked. Since we are in the heat of the summer, there were abundant gators on the road, which promoted even more questions. We asked them did they see wire coming from the gators and of course they said yes. We proceeded to explain that pre-cured tread rubber is not manufactured with any wire and that the most probable reason for the gator was low air pressure, which caused the tire to have a catastrophic failure." Said, Ron Elliott-National Sales Manager/ PRE-Q® GALGO.

The next show was the 44th PSBA (Pennsylvania School Bus Association) conference and trade show on June 24th, 2024, at the Seven Springs Mountain Resort in Champion, PA.
"This was a successful conference and trade show with a record turnout at our booth, and we had a great time discussing the many benefits of retreading. Thanks goes out to our valued dealer partner Mike Stephani-Commercial Sales Manager/Steve Shannon Tire for his help and support during the show." Said, Ron Elliott-National Sales Manager/ PRE-Q® GALGO
Wendy Albor-Owner of Hilfiger Transportation, said, "Ron with Pre-Q and Mike with Steve Shannon Tire told me 3 years ago that I should try retreads and I was not disapointed but,the right Retread is very important! I am super pleased with the quality, pricing, and precision of the PRE-Q® GALGO WMP tread. The tread design is perfect for inclement weather and everyday driving. I would highly recommend PRE-Q® and Steve Shannon Tire to anyone looking for retreads!"

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
"To live in harmony with nature,
we must know how to sing the same song as nature.
To do that, we must understand nature.
Good intentions aren't enough.
Science might be, if we use it wisely."
~ Terry Pratchett
