I was looking through the web getting ready to join ooida, and I saw this other Association.
I was wondering if anyone has heard of them or if they have used them and how they would actually compare to ooida.

They have a website...
AAOO vs. OOIDA: What Truckers Need to Know! - American Association of Owner Operators
Basically OOIDA is a mostly political org with some member benefits.
AAOO is mostly a benefit saving in group company.Farmerbob1, NoBigHurry and Dino soar Thank this. -
So are you saying that ooida is more for members that are looking for a political group to represent them, and the other organization is more about member discounts?
I want to join one of the associations soon. I know that oooda has all of the business tools and has the help to get set up with the up-to-date safety information and getting your Authority etcetera etcetera.
But has anybody used aaoa for their business services? I know that ooida has a good reputation for helping you with any problems or questions with compliance and they have the correct business tools, but I'm not sure about the other organization. Aaoa seems like they have better discounts. -
As for which one is better for member discounts and help, well that's an individual choice based on each companies needs. No way to know until they are compared to what the specific O/O needs. Just due to sheer size I would expect OOIDA to have better programs, but maybe the smaller AAOO has less bureaucracy meaning better service. It's something each O/O likely should look at anyway.NoBigHurry, Tb0n3, brian991219 and 2 others Thank this. -
I guess I was more trying to figure if they were a fly-by-night company or something like that. And which would give me more business tools.
The insurance that they offer for Trucking also seems better than ooida. I'll have to look further into it.Farmerbob1 and Rideandrepair Thank this. -
NoBigHurry, Dino soar and TallJoe Thank this.

AAOO sounds a lot like NAIT [National association of independent truckers]
