Our success is fueled by our efforts to provide our customers the very best vocational truck designed to do the jobs they need it to do,' said Andrew Taitz, chairman of Autocar, LLC. 'However, what I am most proud of is our team's tenacity and dedication. Even though we were hit with supply chain issues, we were one of the few OEMs that never stopped manufacturing and kept its entire team employed.'
The nation's first and only BADASS dump truck
The Autocar DC-64D dump truck is the fourth Autocar DC-64 in the severe-duty Class 8 line.
