Walking through our shop, one truck stopped us in our tracks. A true powerhouse rolling down the line.

This wasn’t just another build. With its tandem axles and commanding presence, this Freightliner M2 redefines what heavy-duty looks like. Tipping the scales at over 54,700 GVW, it’s engineered for serious hauling muscle and built to handle the toughest glass transport challenges with ease.

When we learned it would feature deep red curtains, we knew this wasn’t just a truck—it was a statement. After passing every quality check, it was ready for its spotlight moment with our marketing team.

Soon, this bold unit will hit the road for Minneapolis Glass, a woman-owned leader in glass fabrication and glazing. With more than 80 years of innovation behind them, their commitment to craftsmanship mirrors ours, making this collaboration a perfect example of delivering strength, style, and reliability forward.
