Navistar delivers J.B. Hunt’s 5,000th International LT

J.B. Hunt Transport has taken delivery of its 5,000th International LT Series on-highway tractor, three-and-a-half years after purchasing its first LT, Navistar says.

J.B. Hunt has purchased more LT Series vehicles than any other company in the general freight segment, Navistar says.

The input of J.B. Hunt and its drivers was critical to developing the LT Series, Navistar adds. Assembled in Navistar’s Escobedo, Mexico facility, the cab of this 5,000th LT Series displays a custom commemorative decal. Navistar also commissioned a custom piece of artwork to honor J.B. Hunt and celebrate the relationship between the two companies.
