Freightliner Trucks has awarded its top 50 dealer sales professionals "Elite" status through its annual Leland James Sales Achievement program.


Created in 2003 and named after Freightliner Trucks' founder Leland James, the program recognizes and rewards outstanding sales results from dealerships in the United States and Canada. Recipients were selected for both on-highway and vocational sales success, and each winner will receive a custom crystal trophy engraved with an image of the original "Bubblenose" Freightliner truck developed by Leland James.

The top 20 sales professionals were honored at a special awards ceremony in Marco Island, Fla.
