EQUIPMENT INFO
Orozco’s modern fleet features late-model Freightliner Cascadia and Volvo 760 or 860 tractors (2024–2027 models) equipped with automatic transmissions. To support driver safety while prioritizing personal privacy, their trucks utilize event-only inward- and outward-facing cameras, which drivers are welcome to cover whenever the vehicle is parked. They take pride in maintaining an up-to-date fleet, ensuring the average age of our tractors never exceeds three years, with each truck permanently assigned to its driver.
Built for both comfort and performance, the tractors are governed at 72 mph and come fully outfitter with driver-focused amenities, including an inverter, APU, refrigerator, microwave, and tablet. Depending on your division, flexible home-time parking is available: Regional and Over-the-Road (OTR) drivers may take their trucks home during time off, while Local drivers leave their equipment securely at the terminal.
Orozco will streamline your route and minimize out-of-pocket expenses by providing EZ Pass, Pre-Pass, and all necessary toll cards. For seamless refueling, drivers receive a Relay fuel card for use at Pilot and Flying J locations nationwide.
