DETROIT, Mich. — Detroit Diesel has declared August Driver Appreciation Month and is offering free plant tours to interested CDL-holders and truck owners.

Truck drivers and owners are invited to visit the Detroit Diesel manufacturing plant in August, for a special presentation, lunch and exclusive “behind-the-scenes” tour. Guests will also receive official Detroit Diesel merchandise, the company said.

“Detroit Diesel drivers are truly the backbone of our business because they are actually experiencing the engines at work, every day,” said Brad Williamson, manager, engine and component marketing for Detroit Diesel. “Our Driver Appreciation Month is our way of saying thank-you to all of our hard-working customers and potential customers.”

To arrange a visit, drivers with a commercial licence must sign up at least 48 hours in advance. They can do so at www.DetroitDiesel.com.

  • Do you still offer tours of the engine plant? I would love to come take a tour if you do.
