Morris Finance door prize goes to worthy home. 

As the 2021 Brisbane Truck Show now comes to a close for another 2 years, the team at Morris Finance would like to thank you for coming along and visiting the Morris Finance stand and for entering the Ultimate VIP Experience Package Prize. 

It is with great pleasure we can finally announce the lucky winner of the Ultimate VIP Experience Package is Joe Potter from Queensland. Congratulations Joe!

Joe attended the show on Saturday as part of a family outing with his two brothers, one of whom is a truck driver, the other a diesel fitter. The family outing coincided with the third anniversary of Joe’s operations to remove an SR Trigeminal Malignant Schwannoma Tumour in his brain, which involved twelve hours of brain surgery and an eight-week recovery in hospital.

HVIA Chief Executive Officer, Todd Hacking was joined by Tiffany Hunt, Head of Marketing of promotion partner Morris Finance, and Yogi Kendall from Kendall Trucking Co to make the phone call. Joe’s initial response was priceless: “Well, how about that; you wouldn’t be dead for quids.”

On Monday, as the $45,000 prize package was delivered, Joe followed up with: “Wow, I don’t even win raffles at the rugby. 
 
Joe, even managed to laugh at the supposed irony, saying “Of the three boys in my family, one is a Diesel Fitter and, the other one drives a truck for a living, but the son with a Degree in Political Science and International Relations wins the prize at a truck show”.

Nathan Murray, Managing Director of Morris Finance was delighted to see the Ultimate VIP Experience Package go to someone so deserving.

“It was our first time sponsoring the Brisbane Truck Show, but it was a truly wonderful event, we were pleased to be able to offer up this amazing prize and sponsor the complimentary shuttle bus to the Civil Construction Field Day.” 

“The Brisbane Truck Show is indeed a premier business event, however, we also enjoyed providing some lighter entertainment with our racing simulator proving a hit right throughout the event,” Nathan said.

Joe plans to share the prizes with his family and was clearly overwhelmed when we caught up with him.
