Kings Mountain employees, along with company officials and community leaders, gathered in the facility to celebrate the production milestone. The event included lunch, a formal unveiling of the cab, and an opportunity for the employees to permanently affix their name or initials on the cab.

Plant manager Shelby Evans offered his congratulations to the facility.
