Welcome to the Daimler Trucks North America web site. It is an honor and a pleasure for me to join DTNA as President and CEO. Vehicles built by DTNA can be found in commercial and municipal applications in every state and province, and continue to set the benchmark for safe, reliable and efficient operation. We take great pride in the role our products play in North American commerce, and in the daily lives of commercial vehicle operators and business owners throughout the continent.

Daimler Trucks North America is the largest heavy-duty truck manufacturer in North America, a strong number two producer of medium-duty vehicles and a leading builder of various specialized commercial vehicles. We are a leading heavy-duty truck exporter and a large supplier of trucks to the U.S. military. Through Detroit Diesel, we are a leading provider of heavy- and medium-duty diesel engines. And, we are a major part of the largest commercial vehicle manufacturer in the world, Daimler AG.

Challenging times have not changed our aspirations:

• to produce and market North America’s leading commercial vehicle brands;
• to delight our customers by delivering the highest quality products and excellent support systems; and
• to deliver superior financial results through continuous improvement of products, services and processes.

Our commitment to sustainability in our manufacturing practices and products ensures a continuing emphasis on safety and environmental protection. We are equally proud of our civic involvement and contributions to the communities in which we operate in the U.S., Canada, and Mexico.

The future will bring new demands and opportunities, as we navigate our way through economic recovery and an increasingly competitive global economy. As always, we stand ready to offer the industry's most reliable, innovative and efficient commercial vehicle solutions to you, our customers.

Martin Daum
President & CEO
