Let me throw a few numbers at you: Each Chassis, on average, takes about 4,000 total pieces to complete. Freightliner Custom Chassis is currently building about 112 chassis a day. Do a bit of rough math and that’s about 400,000 pieces per day moving through the facility.

And demand is growing. So how will FCCC get the job done? Stay tuned to this episode of On the Road.
