The Last Word: Sixty Years Strong

In these rocky economic times, it's reassuring to take note of fiscal longevity — such as Navistar Financial Corp. ringing in 60 years of service.

A wholly owned subsidiary of Navistar International Corp., Navistar Financial — founded under the name of International Harvester Credit Corp. on March 12, 1949 — has spent the last six decades helping dealers and customers purchase the OEM's vehicles.

“We have consistently supported our dealers and customers through many ups and downs of the economy over the past 60 years,” said David Johanneson, president & CEO of Navistar Financial. “As the global economy faces extremely difficult conditions, we are even more dedicated to providing the financing products and services that our dealers and customers need to operate their businesses.”
