The electronics company has also announced that it will provide audio systems for Kenworth's 2003 trucks. Designed specifically for commercial vehicle environments, the systems will include AM/FM radios with cassette and CD playback, 6-disc CD changers, alarm clocks and infrared remote controllers. The units can also be used with either XM or Sirius satellite radio receivers.
