Peterbilt takes great pride in achieving 30 years of manufacturing excellence at our Denton facility, says Bill Jackson, vice president of Paccar and general manager of Peterbilt. This significant milestone would not have been possible without the dedication of our employees, the support of our dealer network and our loyal customers who recognize the quality, performance and value of every truck that bears the Peterbilt logo.

In 1980, the plant produced only 15 Model 359s each month. Today, the facility far exceeds its original production capacity, producing eight models for the on-highway and vocational markets.
