A Minnesota-based trucking company has ordered hundreds of new Kenworth trucks to keep their drivers rolling safely and in style.
New Ulm, Minnesota-headquartered J&R Schugel recently announced that they have ordered 200 new 2023 KW T-680 Next Gen trucks to ensure their drivers stay rolling — and earning — in reliable equipment. The company says that it has already started to take delivery on the new trucks.
The top-of-the-line Kenworths come equipped with APUs and have digital dashboards to help keep drivers comfortable and maximize their efficiency.
The company says that they’ve invested $36 million in equipment in 2022 to ensure that all of their drivers are operating dependable trucks that won’t break down. The average age of a J&R Schugel tractor is one to two years and the trailers average two years.
J&R Schugel’s Director of Recruiting Chelsee Patton recently got to test drive the equipment and loved the look and feel of the new Kenworths. Check out the quick video tour below!
In addition to the new Kenworths, J&R Schugel is also focusing on keeping driver compensation highly competitive in 2022 to reward drivers for their hard work and professionalism.
J&R Schugel recently announced a new pay increase that allows their drivers to average $1,680 gross weekly pay.
The company automatically reviews drivers every six months and delivers performance-based raises. J&R Schugel drivers enjoy peace of mind knowing they do not have to fight for pay increases or drive equipment that is constantly breaking down.
J&R Schugel says that they have more exciting plans in the works for 2022 — stay tuned.
