🎉 Celebrating 36 Remarkable Years of Palmer Trucks' Tom Kapitan. 🎉

Today we're celebrating the retirement of Tom Kapitan, our Chief Operating Officer, who spent nearly four decades leading Palmer Trucks with a calm, people-first approach. From running day-to-day operations across multiple states to knowing employees and customers by name, Tom made showing up an art form.

You probably heard him say it: "Thankfully, the weekends go fast." That's Tom.

Join us in thanking Tom for 36 years of leadership, mentorship, and heart. Read his full story here: https://www.palmertrucks.com/celebrating-36-remarkable-years-of-palmer-trucks-tom-kapitan/

Congratulations, Tom!

🏌️300+ golfers packed Pebble Brook Golf Club this year, another record turnout in the history of the Kenworth of Indianapolis golf outing. Customers, vendors, staff and industry partners teed off across 36 holes, and by the end of the day the group had raised $2,250 for Pathway Resource Center, Inc., supporting affordable housing, job training and transportation access for families on the Far Eastside. Thank you to everyone who came out and made it happen, for another great year. ⛳

🛑 Brake Safety Week is here. 🛑

CVSA inspectors are hitting the road August 23-29, with special focus on brake drums and air disc brake rotors this year. In 2025, 15.1% of vehicles inspected were placed out of service for brake related violations.

Palmer Trucks is running specials on brake parts and TRP brake jobs all month. Get your brakes checked now and roll into inspection week ready.

🔧 A dent in the door or a scratch down the side doesn't stop a truck from running, but it does say something to everyone who sees it pull in, and after a while, those small marks add up to an impression nobody's looking for. Our body shop techs across Indianapolis, Cincinnati, and Dayton see trucks like that come through every week, trucks that still have plenty of life left in them but could use a little help looking like it. 🚛

We're certified Axalta and PPG Refinish Centers, and our work goes well beyond commercial trucks. 🚌 Buses, emergency vehicles, public works equipment, and pretty much any large commercial vehicle that needs real attention gets the same level of care in our shops. Whether it's a small touch-up or a full rebuild, our techs work on every piece of equipment like it's still got years of service ahead of it, because more often than not, it does. ✅

Three generations in this business have taught us that equipment that looks the part tends to be treated as if it matters, by both the people driving it and the people relying on it every day. That kind of care has a way of paying off down the road. 🛣️

📍 Bring us whatever needs work. Between our three shops, we've probably seen it before, and we're ready to take care of it.
