 PROFILE
On the road again. Volvo Trucks North America makes big rigs for its parent, Sweden-based AB Volvo. The company primarily manufactures heavy-duty, 18-wheel commercial trucks, with or without sleeper cabs. Its models range from the home-in-a-cab Volvo 770 -- which includes bedroom and office facilities -- to rigs specially designed for use in logging, construction, aircraft fueling, and refuse processing. Volvo Trucks North America also makes heavy-duty diesel engines and rear suspensions, and it has a controlling interest in US-based truck-stop chain Petro Stopping Centers.
