No stranger to the Kenworth brand, owner Ken Walker recently splashed out for his first new Kenworth, an eight wheeler K220 with Aerodyne sleeper. The might new beast is driven by Antony “Tony” Rhind. As a younger man Tony started his driving career back in 1983 at Whitikahu Transport also carting livestock. Following a 25 year sabbatical dairy farming Tony recently returned to the driver’s seat to deliver stock North Island wide.
