* Iowa - New Western Star, truck to debut at GATS
-- Western Star presented the Owner-Operator Independent Drivers Association last week with a new 5700 XE to pull its Spirit of the American Trucker display trailer to shows and other events. The presentation was made July 10 at the Walcott Truckers Jamboree at the I80 Truck Stop in Walcott, Iowa... Mike Schermoly, marketing director for OOIDA said the new truck will make its debut at the Great American Trucking Show in Dallas in August... Guy Lemieux, marketing segment manager of Western Star, said the 5700 XE is Western Star’s new model with a focus on aerodynamic design. Depending on what its pulling, Lemieux said the 5700 XE could get “in the high eights” miles per gallon on the highway... The 5700XE will be produced at Western Star’s Cleveland, N.C. plant...
