 Nebraska Truck Center was “born” in November 1969 with the dream of 3 men; L. Kent Coen, Lloyd Brown, and their late partner Floyd Hough to start a franchised heavy-duty truck dealership in central Nebraska. Beginning with a small office area and 6 bays for trucks along East Highway 30 in Grand Island, Nebraska, then over the years the dealership grew and underwent many changes, adding locations in North Platte and Hastings, relocating our Grand Island location, as well as adding parts delivery routes.
In 1972, we opened our North Platte store to provide customers with a second location to find quality service, parts, and truck sales. We recently completed a major expansion and remodel project to better serve our parts and service customers.
In 1992, we opened our Hastings location located at the intersection of Burlington & Hwy 6. This location features a large, state-of-the-art full service body shop, a wrecker unit, and used or salvage parts sales.
To meet the demand of our customers and be closer to the interstate in March of 2001, we moved to our current Grand Island location along US Highway 281, three miles north of Interstate 80. The Highway 281 Grand Island location consists of a 56,000 square foot state-of-the-art building housing the company’s service, parts and sales departments. The service area offers 15 large service bays big enough to handle heavy –or medium duty trucks and a large customer lounge with a TV, laundry facilities, showers, and more. The parts department consists of a huge $2-million dollar parts inventory - which includes parts for Cat, Cummins, Detroit and Mercedes engines, in addition to parts for all models of Freightliner, Sterling and Western Star.
