5. Volvo
Volvo trucks make up 10 percent of the heavy-duty truck market share in America. That’s pretty substantial when you consider the competition of the American truck brands. Volvo is a Swedish manufacturer that also owns Mack Trucks – known for the Pinnacle truck series and its Granite dump trucks. Although fifth in terms of the American truck market, Volvo is the second largest heavy-duty truck producer in the world. They also happen to be the preferred choice for Jean-Claude Van Damme to practice his splits on! Precision displayed at its finest.
