“We’re proud of our partnership with OOIDA, and are pleased to offer its members rebates on our trucks,” said Kelly Gedert, director of product marketing for Freightliner Trucks and Detroit.

Qualifying trucks include 2018 and 2019 Freightliner new Cascadia, original Cascadia, and 122SD trucks and 2018 and 2019 model-year Western Star 4900 and 5700XE sleepers or day cabs. OOIDA members are directed to check local SelecTrucks dealers for qualifying used truck inventory.

Based on truck model and configuration, OOIDA members may receive a $1,000 to $2,000 rebate on Western Star Trucks and a $1,000 rebate on Freightliner trucks.

The SelecTrucks OOIDA discount can be combined with the All-Star Line Up promotion or the Proud to Serve Veterans promotion.
