UST plant closing - npfd801 - 07-27-2018

US Tanker, now UST, is ceasing to exist as we know it.  The Wisconsin facility where they built rigs is closing and all operations are being moved to another facility of their parent company.

Kind of sad, there were some good people at UST.

Sad, they built an excellent tanker. I wonder why it has been kept quiet by Spartan? I didn't even see a press release. Any idea where it is moving to?

I had a feeling this was going to happen. I'm sure they are going to dissolve the brand at some point in favor of Spartan ERV having one brand under it's umbrella. Or use this brand as just a line of trucks not a separate company.

I believe everything is going to the South Dakota plant.
