LEAMINGTON, Ont. – This month’s Truck of the Month belongs to Jeff Wigfield. It’s a 2006 Pete 379 that he keeps in pristine condition. He drives a regular run from Leamington, Ont. to Atlanta, Ga. and back.

Wigfield is contracted to Tradewind Carriers based out of Leamington. The truck is powered by a 475-hp Cat engine.

It is equipped with an 18-speed transmission and pulls a 2001 Great Dane 48-ft. stainless steel trailer with a 10-1 spread.
