OUR COMPANY

Youngstown Kenworth was established in 1972 by Tom Mikes, who at the time, recently returned from the Vietnam war. He went on to build an organization that focuses on giving customers a premium experience while at the same time building long lasting relationships, many of which continue 49 years later. Today, it is still family owned and operated with the same focus on quality trucks & aftermarket services.

OUR VALUES AND COMMITMENTS

FAIR TREATMENT AND HIGH STANDARDS

Since 1972, we value our relationships with our customers and employees above all. We commit to treat you fairly and to the highest standards. Whether it is a truck sale or a service repair, we strive to give you honest, straightforward, good old fashioned customer service with the hope of building a long lasting relationship with you.

FAMILY OWNED & locally Operated

As a single location, family owned and operated Kenworth dealership, we are able to focus our full attention on you, our customer. We have kept to one location on purpose, as it allows us to be part of the day-to-day operations, meet customers, and build relationships. It also allows us to make decisions quickly and address issues proactively – continuously improving the customer experience. We look forward to the chance to earn your business.

YOUR BUSINESS IS our priority

Youngstown Kenworth understands the importance of buying the right truck and keeping it working. You need a quality truck, that is reliable, and that is backed up by a experienced team of professionals. We have chosen to represent a premium product, Kenworth, and have invested in our team and facilities to give you the confidence that you made the right choice – even after you drive your new Kenworth down the road.

largest premium truck inventory in the us

Tom put Youngstown Kenworth on the map by stocking the most Kenworth W900L Studios in the country. We continue that tradition with the largest inventory of stock Kenworth trucks, from premium over-the-road Studio Sleepers to high-horsepower heavy-haul pull trucks, we have them ready to be put to work!
