The council works with Kenworth to help provide leading-edge customer support throughout the dealer network, Kenworth PremierCare® and the new Kenworth PremierCare Gold Certified program.

“The challenges fleets and owner-operators face can vary widely depending on how and where they operate their trucks,” said Carl Herzog, the council’s chairman and Vice President of Central Illinois Trucks in Normal, Ill. “If you look at its dealer network, Kenworth has customer-focused dealers with a wide variety of different perspectives and experiences in serving customers. The makeup of the Kenworth Dealer Council is designed to be as representative of that body as possible. After all, Kenworth dealers serve customers involved in a wide variety of different segments, some with unique operational and maintenance needs.”
“Drawing upon those varied experiences, Kenworth Dealer Council members provide invaluable insight as we strive to enhance our customers’ experience and satisfaction,” said Jason Skoog, Kenworth assistant general manager for sales and marketing. “Through the years, dealer council members have helped us establish Kenworth’s high standards for ongoing customer support. Last year’s council provided key input in the creation and introduction of the Kenworth PremierCare Gold Program.”
