EquipmentPhotos 19

The inaugural 2022 Kenworth Truck Parade in downtown Chillicothe, Ohio, featured more than 50 Class 8 new, classic, and customized Kenworth trucks, from models built in 1967 through Kenworth’s latest models, such as the T680 Next Gen. Truck drivers from 28 states and Canada traveled to Chillicothe to showcase their trucks in the parade.

“Our first Kenworth truck parade here in Chillicothe was a lot of fun," said Jack Schmitt, Kenworth Chillicothe assistant plant manager. "We’re already looking forward to next year’s parade in celebration of Kenworth’s 100-year anniversary.”

Trucks in the parade dated back as far as the 1960s, with this 1967 Kenworth K100 cabover tractor.
