WALCOTT, IOWA — On Friday, July 13th, shortly after 2pm Matt Baczewski’s life changed forever. He is the lucky winner of a 2006 International CXT in CAT Scale’s Weigh to Win® Sweepstakes. Matt drew the lucky key that started the new International CXT during the Walcott Truckers Jamboree at the Oak Grove 70 in Walcott, Iowa. Matt was one of five finalists in CAT Scale’s Weigh to Win® Sweepstakes. He is an owner-operator leased to Marty’s Construction Services. He lives in Sand Lake, Michigan. Matt always uses CAT Scale because of the guarantee and every once in a while he gets a chance to win a new truck. He plans on taking the truck to his 78-year-old grandmother-in-law’s and letting her take it for a spin! Matt’s new CXT is loaded with all the bells and whistles, including:
International DT466 I-6 300 hp diesel engine

If a driver was an instant winner he or she was automatically registered for a chance to win a trip for two to the Walcott Truckers Jamboree and a key to try in the ignition of the beautiful bright yellow 2006 International CXT.
