January 8 - At the end of last year, Kenworth Truck marked the delivery of the millionth truck that it has produced since it started manufacturing some 91 years ago.
The milestone vehicle was a Kenworth T680 Advantage with the 455 hp Paccar MX-13 engine, presented to TransAm Trucking.
Kenworth was founded in Seattle WA (USA) in 1923 and has grown from producing less than 100 trucks annually early in its history to more than 45,000 in 2014, its second highest total ever.
