    Can anyone identify the company that this logo belongs to?

    It looks like it says ALA but I haven't found any matching companies yet with the same logo.

    If it helps, these pictures are from a week ago taken in Laredo, TX. Any help appreciated, thanks!

    Probably because its a mexican company. Best bet is to see if you can figure out what the dot numbers are on the side of the hood.

    There are what appears to be a bunch of numbers near the top of the hood. One should be a DOT number. If you can make it out on the original image, you should be able to get the company info.

    good guess but ala in nc is a local company. I dont think the odds favor them having a daycab running arround larado.

    Thanks for the replies. And thanks for the tip about it possibly being a Mexican company, hadn't even considered that.

    I don't think it's the NC company, and as for the numbers on the truck, they read 2217 (which I was able to see in a different frame grab) ..... is that the DOT number? Is there a place I can do a reverse lookup of somesort on that #?

    No that's most likely the Truck Number.

    You're looking for the number after DOT or USDOT.

    MC Number would work as well.

    2217 is a unit number assigned by the company to that individual truck. If you look at the side of the hood directly in front of the windshield you'll see a bunch of numbers. One of those will be a US DOT number. You can use that number to find the company name. Thats assuming you can make it out in the original picture.

    I suspect the USDOT numbers were purposefully obscured by the original video uploader, sigh! Lol. Oh well!
