Paccar Leasing has named Rush Truck Leasing of Houston and San Antonio TX as its 2003 North American Franchise of the Year.

Jim Smith, general manager for Rush Truck Leasing locations in Houston and San Antonio, said the award recognizes that its business is hitting on all cylinders. “This award is the culmination of several factors coming together for us. We've assembled a strong team of 27 employees in Texas who know the importance of customer service. The maintenance department has renewed energy under the talented direction of Dan Bothmann, who had been named PacLease Western Region Service Manager of the Year. And our rental business is growing as the local market sees the advantage of our top-quality Peterbilt medium- and heavy-duty trucks accompanied by high-standard maintenance services.”

PacLease Region franchise award winners are Coast Counties Peterbilt PacLease, San Jose CA, Western Region; MHC Truck Leasing, Denver CO, Central Region; Cooper Leasing, Charlotte NC, Eastern Region; and Inland PacLease, Langley, British Columbia, Canada Region.
