| On December 31st Karmak will have completed 20 years of providing innovative software solutions to the heavy-duty truck industry. Our continued growth in an industry plagued with sometimes-extreme economic trends illustrates just how strong of an institution we are.
We are solid in our beliefs that honesty and outstanding products are what you want--not gimmicks and promises that never materialize. Our employees are solid in their dedication to Karmak. With over 30 employees who have been here for 8 years or more, we take pride in being a company that employees and customers are proud to call "theirs"! Thank you for supporting us and allowing us to become the most successful software company in the industry. Your faith humbles us, your support flatters us, and your dedication makes us promise to work even harder to meet all of your needs in the next 20 years! 2001 Dealers' Conference a success
