The year 2020 has been a year to remember with live events taking a back seat to COVID-19. However, The Professional Wrecker Operators of Florida (PWOF) did not let that interfere with bringing the excitement and fun of the annual Florida Tow Show Raffle Truck drawing to their followers.

The drawing, which was held Saturday, Oct. 23, at the Hilton Buena Vista Palace in Orlando, host hotel to the Florida Tow Show, was broadcast live on the Florida Tow Show Facebook page. The truck, generously provided by Miller Industries and Hino Trucks, is part of a raffle that supports PWOF Education and Legislation programs.

Jeff Denton of Appalachian Recovery in Oliver Springs, Tenn., won this year’s raffle truck: a 258 Hino Trucks chassis with a Miller Industries Century 12-series LCG™ flatbed.

Jeff still cannot believe he won the truck.

“For the past three years I bought $100 in tickets, but I never thought I would win,” he says. “When I spoke to Mike Seamon, I was waiting for the punch line. My wife still didn’t believe me until Bob Crouch of Crouch Wrecker Sales called and congratulated me. Then she believed it.”
