International Gets Orders For New HX Trucks

International Truck said it has received its largest one-time order for International HX Series trucks to date from RLJ Thompson Trucking, Inc., Concord, Va. RLJ Thompson is an aggregate hauler operating throughout Virginia, Maryland, Washington DC, North Carolina and South Carolina. The company has purchased 15 HX620 trucks equipped with the Cummins ISX15 engine.

International Truck launched the HX Series, a new line of Class 8 premium vocational trucks for the severe service industry at the 2016 World of Concrete trade show in January.

“We already have orders for more than 300 trucks and that number is growing by the day,” said Jeff Sass, senior vice president, Sales and Marketing, Navistar. “This interest is fueled by how we designed our new HX Series based on in-depth discussions with leading Class 8 vocational customers.”
