READING, Pa., December 10, 2008 - Penske Truck Leasing today hosted the grand opening of its newest facility, a state-of-the-art structure in Greenville, S.C., located at 1116 White Horse Road. Offering full-service truck leasing, contract maintenance and commercial and consumer truck rental services, the nearly 18,000 square-foot facility is housed on 12.4 acres.

Featuring Penske's new facility design elements, it houses three service bays, an automated wash bay and three-lane high speed fuel island, all designed to enhance the customer experience.

To save energy and improve the environment, special light bulbs with ballasts using 50 percent less energy have been installed. Wireless technology at the facility enables Penske service technicians to integrate various vehicle diagnostic and repair software.
