Interstate PowerSystems is proud to be a Distributor for Allison Transmission. That pride extends to our employees, and one of our employees was recently recognized by Allison as one of the very best in North America.

 

Ron Hergett of the Interstate PowerSystems facility in Billings, Montana was recently selected as an Allison Guild Star. Ron is one of only five technicians selected from all Allison Guild members in North America  to be recognized as a Guild Star this year.

 

To be selected as an Allison Guild Star, a technician must possess exceptional technical knowledge of Allison products, as well as demonstrate leadership, dedication, and professionalism in the workplace.  Guild Stars are typically people who go the extra mile to deliver first class customer support, exhibit enthusiasm and play a mentoring role for less experienced technicians. These attributes, although straight forward, are by no means easily achieved.

 

Ron's selection as a Guild Star means that these attributes and qualifications have been noticed in Ron by others around him – his supervisors, his peers and most important, by our customers.

 

Ron will receive a personalized plaque inscribed with his name. Ron's name will also be added to a larger plaque showing the names of all past Guild Star honorees that is permanently and prominently displayed back at Allison Transmission headquarters in Indianapolis, IN.

  

Please join Gordy Galarneau (Chairman of the Board), Jeff Caswell (CEO), Travis Penrod (President), and all other Managers and co-workers at Interstate in congratulating Ron on this excellent achievement.

 

When Ron says “Pride in Service” – he means it, and it shows.

 

Congratulations, Ron!

Continuing its legacy for developing reliable and fuel efficient engines, Detroit Diesel introduced its new DD13™ engine today. A smaller version of the popular DD15™ engine, the DD13 displaces 12.8 liters, and features a 6-cylinder, in-line configuration. The new engine allows customers to demand economy, serviceability and performance.

 

Designed for the less-than-truckload, regional distribution, and vocational markets, the DD13 will be offered in output and torque variants from 350 to 450 hp and 1,350 to 1,650 lb-ft. 

 

The DD13 is the second in a series of all-new heavy-duty engines from Detroit Diesel that will eventually cover three displacement categories: 13 liters, 15 liters and 16 liters. Part of the Detroit Diesel engine family, the DD13 shares a common base engine design that will be leveraged on a global scale by Daimler Trucks.

 

“We have taken all of the lessons learned from our 70 years of building engines and applied this extensive history to our new engine,” said David Siler, director of marketing for Detroit Diesel. “The DD13 – which is truly a culmination of our experience and innovations – delivers what our customers want: economy, serviceability and performance.”
