Kenworth - Quebec Loyalty

Both Kenworth and Peterbilt are assembled at a mammoth PACCAR (Pacific Car and Foundry) plant in Ste-Therese, QC. Although only medium duty Kenworth T120, T270 and T370s are assembled there now, there is still a lot of brand loyalty in Quebec for the heavier rigs.

Thus many KWs make their way to the Simard Suspensions shop in Baie St-Paul, QC. a recent sampling:

Interesting to see a red frame, maybe the rest of this hauler will get the same treatment.


 Not visible in the photo is a large notch in the sleeper roof, indicating a likely crane installation.


The big tombstone grille is still popular.
