Kenworth Truck Sales - New & Used

More about Kenworth Trucks

The company that became Kenworth Trucks began in 1912 as an auto dealership called "Gerlinger Motor Car Works". Owned by two brothers, George and Louis Gerlinger, the dealership soon became a truck manufacturer. The fledgling company quickly outgrew its digs in Portland, Oregon.

After relocating to Tacoma, Washington, the Gerlingers accepted an offer from two local businessmen to buy their operation. Those two men were Frederick Kent and Edgar K. Worthington. By the mid-1920s, the company name was changed to "Kenworth" and this popular truck brand was born.

Today, Kenworth continues to produce dependable trucks in Washington state. The manufacturer's "T" line of trucks is its flagship.
