Volvo and GMC Truck Center of Carolina has changed its operating name to Advantage Truck Center.


The change more accurately reflects the full-service truck dealership's broadened scope of operations across its three locations in North Carolina, according to the company. Advantage Truck Center offers Volvo, GMC, Isuzu, Hino, Autocar, and Xspotter commercial trucks. Advantage also offers used parts, new parts, maintenance and repair service, a collision center, new and used truck sales, traditional and sub-prime financing, full-service leasing, rental, and contract maintenance.

"This change comes at an exciting time," said owner Terry Young. "The transportation community is rebounding. It's the perfect time for us to more precisely position the company with our customers."

Young has been in the commercial truck business for nearly 40 years, including 20 years with Volvo Trucks North America, finishing his career there as executive vice president, Commercial Operations and Chairman, Volvo Trucks Canada. He purchased his dealership and leasing company in 1995 after leaving Volvo, and is a past chairman of the Truck Rental and Leasing Association.

Advantage Truck Center is a Charlotte, N.C.-based full-service truck dealership with branch facilities in Hickory and Rocky Mount, N.C. Their sister company, Advantage Truck Leasing, is a full-service leasing and commercial truck rental operation with locations throughout North Carolina. The leasing operation gains nationwide parts and service support through the NationaLease network of independent leasing companies.
