In a year when medium-duty truck sales are projected to remain flat, Kenworth continues on its growth mode from 2002 and is expecting record medium-duty sales. The company also increased the T300 model's build rate to keep pace with demand, said Mike Parrish, Kenworth's medium-duty product marketing manager.

“Last year, we grew our T300 sales by over 35% which is particularly noteworthy since industrywide, medium-duty truck sales were off 20% from the year before,” said Parrish.
