The new building is next to the dealer’s previous facility and features a lounge area with flat screen TVs and recliners where drivers can wait for their trucks to be serviced. The dealership is located at 3401 Industrial Dr., off of U.S. Highway 31, west of Maxwell Air Force Base.
The existing 18,000-square-foot facility will be renovated and transformed into an additional parts warehouse for Truckworx Kenworth – Montgomery. Mike Henderson will continue to serve as branch manager. Jerry Speigner manages the service department and Cullen McDavid manages the parts department.
Parts and service are available from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., and the truck sales department is open from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday. The service department offers full-warranty support for Paccar MX series engines.
