The company recently donated two trucks during the summer semester to provide students with hands-on training opportunities in driving and diagnostics.
The donation includes a blue 2018 International LT625 6-by-4 and a white 2017 International ProStar Plus 122 6-by-4. Both trucks feature 450 HP Cummins engines and the reliable 6-by-4 configuration that makes them well-suited for commercial applications.
The 2018 International LT625 is equipped with a Cummins X15 Efficiency Series engine, disc brakes and dual drives configuration. The 2017 International ProStar Plus 122 features a Cummins ISX engine, disc and drum brakes ideal for training purposes, and diagnostic capabilities. Both trucks are in excellent working condition.
“We are incredibly grateful to HOLT for their generous donation of two semitrucks to support our Truck Technician program,” said Sherri Johnson, dean of the School of Transportation and Heavy Equipment. “With the high demand of truck technicians in the field, this contribution provides our students with invaluable hands-on training opportunities and helps ensure they are prepared to meet industry needs from day one.”
