Food and Beverage Fleet Recruits Drivers with Kenworth Sleepers
Turns out that trucks can do much more than efficiently carry goods across the country. The right truck can also attract and retain qualified drivers.
Consider Navajo Express, a fleet which serves the food and beverage industry across 48 states. To help recruit and retain top drivers, Navajo began purchasing Kenworth T680 76-inch sleepers in 2014. It now operates 437 T680s with the PACCAR MX-13 engine.
“The T680 with PACCAR engine has been a very good truck for us with its aerodynamic fuel efficiency and, more importantly, the comfort it provides our drivers,” saidNavajo Express President Don Digby Jr. “If you want the best drivers, you better have the best equipment. For us, Kenworth was a simple choice.”
“When our drivers succeed, we all succeed,” said Navajo Express President Don Digby Jr., whose father, Don Digby Sr., founded the company 36 years ago. “By giving drivers the right equipment that won’t break down, by giving them a quality cab and sleeper where they are comfortable driving and resting, they can have success.”

“We believe the T680 is the best truck on the road with features like the automatic-unlocking fifth wheel to limit the exposure of the driver’s rotator cuff,”added Digby. “These things are important to us and to our drivers.”
