Peterbilt Motors Co. said it has begun a new program, dubbed Red Oval, to provide customers with certified pre-owned trucks through its dealer network and Paccar Financial Used Truck Centers.

Only Peterbilt trucks that are four model years or newer and with less than 450,000 miles are eligible for Red Oval certification, the Denton, Texas-based truck maker said.

The program is intended to establish new standards and expectations in the pre-owned truck market and “features the industry’s highest quality pre-owned truck inventory backed by a certified inspection and factory-authorized warranty,” Darrin Siver, Peterbilt general manager, said in a statement.

All the certified trucks will have passed a comprehensive 150-point inspection that is reviewed by the program’s management team.



The standard, complimentary coverage is up to one year or 125,000 miles. Optional extended coverage can be added up to 60 months or 625,000 miles. Plans include free towing and no deductible, said Peterbilt, a subsidiary of Paccar Inc., which also includes Kenworth Truck Co.
