Meeting Topic
New Engine Technology in Class 8 Diesel Trucks.
There are close to half a million heavy-duty diesel trucks on the road in the United States. The combination of new emission regulations from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the need for better fuel economy and longer lasting engines are all driving factors for new technology in Class 8 diesel engines. Join us as we learn what the future holds for heavy-duty diesel truck engines.
A panel of four speakers will be discussing the new Class 8 diesel engine design. The panelists are:
Jim McKenzie - General Service Manager, Cummins
Bob Blackwell - Automotive Sales/Customer Support, Cummins
David Zack - Director of Maintenance, UPS
Keith Fulp - Tractor Engineer, UPS
