Meritor and Penske award ute to winning dealer

O’Reilly Trucks has taken out the grand prize after being named the best performing Penske dealer in Meritor’s ‘Unbreakabull’ competition.

The business has won a brand-new customised Mitsubishi Triton ute as part of Meritor and Penske’s major promotion last year.

O’Reilly Trucks is a family owned and operated business based in Wagga Wagga. It services the Riverina and surrounds with quality truck, trailer and bus parts and service and has had the most significant growth in Penske’s dealer network for a well-deserved win.

“This great result was achieved through a combination of hard work, teamwork, and offering a great service along with the great support from our loyal customers,” said Tracey O’Reilly, store manager at O’Reilly Trucks.

The ute was presented to the O’Reilly team in March, which coincidentally aligned with the celebration of the dealership’s two years as a Penske’s Dealer for the region. 

O’Reilly was founded in July 2010 by Brad and Tracey O’Reilly from humble beginnings, with only one assistant at the time.

“Through hard work and offering a great service we have grown the business from those humble beginnings to now employing a team of more than 20 dedicated staff members,” Brad said.

The major growth began in 2018 when O’Reilly Trucks was appointed the Scania dealer for the region. 

In March 2020, O’Reilly Trucks were appointed the Penske dealer for the region, acquiring Western Star, MAN and Dennis Eagle Trucks and Detroit Engines.

As part of a Meritor and Penske promotion, the dealership has won a brand-new customised Mitsubishi Triton ute.

This resulted in rapid growth in the business, with the number of staff growing from 10 to 20 to support growth and demand from industry. 

With this came O’Reilly’s own dedicated spare parts building to supply genuine and quality aftermarket truck, trailer and bus parts. 

Over the past two years the spare parts department has continued to expand both in the physical size of the warehouse and in staff numbers. 

O’Reilly is a major supporter of industry leading brands such as Meritor parts. Their expertise is backed by an experienced team with more than 100 years of combined knowledge in the industry between them to help their customers hit the road with confidence.

“We are honoured to receive the support from such worldwide industry leaders in Meritor HVS and the Penske Australia brands; Western Star, MAN, Dennis Eagle, and Detroit; along with a wide range of other leading suppliers to enable us to support our loyal and expanding customer base,” added Tracey.
