“Tri-State Kenworth is a very competitive dealer in the busy Northeast market, providing outstanding customer service, facilities and technology,” said Bob Christensen. Kenworth general manager and Paccar vp.

MHC Kenworth Texas won the Kenworth “Medium Duty Dealer of the Year” award for 2003. The dealership achieved a seven-fold increase in Kenworth T300 sales in its 2003 fiscal year, compared with 2000.
