This 2015 Peterbilt 579 is one of Wanship Enterprises’ 55 trucks, most of which sport a patriotic theme. Tod Orrell, the company’s director of safety and human resources, says this particular rig has one of the more elaborate graphics schemes in the fleet. The truck is powered by a 550-hp Cummins with an Eaton-Fuller 13-speed. The fleet, based out of North Salt Lake, Utah, hauls refrigerated LTL between Utah and California, the Pacific Northwest and Arizona.
