May 15, 2015

Rush Enterprises has acquired Yancey Truck Centers in Georgia, adding eight locations to its portfolio. With the new locations, the company now operates 120 Rush Truck Centers in 20 states. 

The acquisition includes International Truck dealerships in eight locations in central Georgia and an Idealease truck rental and leasing operation in Albany, Georgia. The newly acquired dealerships will operate as part of the company’s Navistar division.

Rush paid approximately $30 million.

“This acquisition significantly expands our Navistar presence in the Southern United States,” said W. M. “Rusty” Rush, chairman, CEO & president. “More importantly, the strength of our network allows us to keep our customers up and running, while offering convenience and best-in-class technology and service, now in eight new locations.

“Yancey Truck Centers is a respected dealer organization, and we look forward to continuing the standard of service excellence they have established.  We are happy to welcome into our organization the employees who helped build that reputation,” Rush added.
