Daimler Trucks delivers its 200,000th Western Star

Comunicato Stampa disponibile solo in lingua originale. 

Stuttgart / Portland (Oregon) – #daimler Trucks has reached the 200,000 mark in #westernstar #truck deliveries in the USA. The iconic US trucks with their striking front-end design and characteristic chrome look are used in North America predominantly as special vehicles and construction site vehicles in the vocational trucks segment. #westernstar trucks are generally "custom made" vehicles manufactured specifically in accordance with the body requirements of the customers and are particularly well-known for their robustness and resistance under harsh conditions. The anniversary vehicle – a #westernstar 4700 SB with waste water disposal body – was handed over to customer Joe Johnson Equipment at the plant in Portland (Oregon). Joe Johnson Equipment is a leading supplier for infrastructure maintenance equipment in North America.

Western Star was founded in 1967 in Cleveland (Ohio) as a manufacturer of trucks for use in the wood and oil industries. In 2000, #daimler Trucks North America took over the brand. The first 100,000 vehicles were sold by #westernstar over the course of 39 years and a further 100,000 trucks have been sold to customers over the 14 years since 2006.
