President Donald Trump visited Peterbilt Motors’ manufacturing plant in Denton, Texas, on Oct. 1, using the factory floor to highlight domestic truck production, industrial employment and his trade and regulatory agenda.
Peterbilt, a division of CPA member PACCAR, builds medium- and heavy-duty diesel and electric trucks at the Denton complex. The 700,000-square-foot facility employs more than 2,500 people and produces roughly 200 trucks a day. PACCAR CEO Preston Feight joined Trump at the event, which included a plant tour and remarks to hundreds of employees.
Trump credited the administration’s 25% tariff on imported medium- and heavy-duty trucks with strengthening U.S. production and encouraging investment at the facility.
