Kenworth Sales Co. opens Idaho location

Nov. 4, 2013

A new, full-service Kenworth Sales Co. parts dealership has opened in Heyburn, ID.

The 19,000-sq.-ft. facility has 12 service bays and 5,700 sq. ft. of parts storage and display space. The dealership features Kenworth proprietary and TRP all-makes parts as well as a driver’s lounge.

Located off Exit 208 on U.S. Interstate 84, the new location is adjacent to a motel and a travel center with fuel stations and has a large parking lot with ample room for drivers to maneuver their trucks and trailers.

“Heyburn has a strong agriculture and farm industry. A number of local companies move agricultural products and freight, and they need a facility where they can shop for quality trucks and obtain excellent parts and service support,” said Kyle Treadway, president of Kenworth Sales Co. “To serve those customers, our new location offers extended hours of operation Monday through Saturday and is open Sunday. We also support truckers traveling eastbound and westbound on I-84 through Idaho.”

There is also a PacLease franchise that offers the opportunity to rent Kenworth trucks powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG) and try them out before they lease or buy them.

“Blu LNG has opened an LNG station in Jerome, Idaho, 45 miles to the northwest and has another one planned for Cassie, ID, 25 mi. to the southeast,” Treadway added. “The LNG stations will offer local customers convenient locations to get their LNG-powered Kenworth trucks refueled.”
