Doral Trucker Program: Rolling, Rolling, Rolling

In 1996 R.J. Reynolds noted that the smoking incidence among truck drivers was a whopping 76% (RJR Bates No. 517805339 [1996], Page 2, http://legacy.library.ucsf.edu/tid/vov92a00). Some ideas for promoting Doral cigarettes to truckers in 1996 included tying product and service giveaways into frequent fueler programs, providing truckers with a roadside assistance program and providing purchase incentives like "Buy 1 Carton, Get a Free Truck Wash," "Buy 2 Packs, Get a Free Hula Girl Air Freshener," "Buy 2 packs and Get a Free Smokin' Joe Condom," or giving away a "rubber trucker companion doll." [RJR 51875799, Page 2, 1996]
