 Oak Grove 70 Petro has made show trucks a main attraction in the new Super Truck Showroom.  “You’ll find a bright green Peterbilt 379 named “LimeLight”, that has a retro look about it, displayed on a diamond tread covered turntable and a teal and purple Kenworth W900 tractor trailer showcasing a mural that features our Country’s greatest road, Route 66.  They’re amazing”, says Joel Hamilton, general manager.

The Super Truck Showroom also features a wall of lights allowing drivers to see what every single type of available light looks like when it’s illuminated.  The vinyl graphics, custom t-shirts, embroidery center and laser engraving are all housed in a one-stop Custom Shop where drivers can create just about anything.  “We really have made this all about the professional driver,” says Hamilton.

In addition to the Super Truck Showroom, Oak Grove 70 Petro has also expanded their food offerings by adding a Taco Bell / Pizza Hut Express, as well as a Blimpie sandwich shop in the Fuel Center.
