The first Kenworth Icon 900 limited edition tractor was recently delivered to long-time Kenworth customer Keim TS.

“We’re celebrating our 60th anniversary this year,” said Stan Keim, president and owner of Keim TS, which hauls more than 50,000 flatbed and dry van cargo loads per year throughout the lower 48 states. “When I saw the Icon 900, I thought it would be a great way to celebrate who we are and how Kenworth trucks and MHC Kenworth, our dealer, have helped get Keim TS to where we are today.”

Keim said he plans to keep the new Kenworth Icon 900 at Keim headquarters in Sabetha, Kan., as part of the company’s driver recruitment and retention efforts.

Keim TS also purchased an additional Icon 900 through MHC Kenworth – Kansas City and is using it as a driver reward truck. Myron Wiebe, a Keim TS driver for 21 years, was chosen to be the driver of that Kenworth Icon 900.
