Bruckner's Truck & Equipment, based in Amarillo, Texas, marked 90 years in business this week.
"We are proud and overjoyed to be commemorating our 90 years in business and have enjoyed celebrating anniversary events all across our 37 locations throughout the year," says Chris Bruckner, executive vice president.
Founded by B.M. "Bennie" Bruckner Sr., the company is now run by Chris and his brother, Brian, sons of Ben Bruckner Jr. The company has expanded across the southwest and into the Pacific Northwest.

"My vision for Bruckner Truck Sales is that we are a 'gritty' organization with a lot of 'gritty' people on our team. Often, we are faced with great challenges and difficulties, but people with character have the will to meet the challenge and overcome it," says Brian Buckner, president. "Grit is a description that fit my grandfather and my father very well. Not to mention that they were both passion and perseverance."
Buckner represents Volvo and Mack Trucks in eight states.
