About Us

Nuss Truck & Equipment is a three-generation, family-owned, and operated business built on American values.

Our story starts with founder Charles B. Nuss, Jr., a repair shop helper turned business owner, and his legacy of commitment to family and community, passion for business, and drive for service.  Since 1959, Nuss Truck & Equipment has grown across the North Midwestern United States, providing businesses a helping hand with a hard-working team, quality products, and service that is second-to-none.

Affirming the Nuss legacy is a reminder that even in a rapidly changing environment, we strive to adhere to the principles that brought us this far, and still move towards a path of innovation. Inspired by this idea and the reliable, American-made products that brought us here, The Nuss Collection was created.

The Nuss Collection features a variety of vintage trucks and construction vehicles from the early to mid-1900s. Restored and maintained by the Nuss Family and many generous collaborators, this collection offers a joyful look back at the rise of the trucking industry and celebrates resilience and innovation on American soil.

“Growing up around Mack Trucks, the deep history of American Trucking has been a part of our family for years. Our passion for preserving old historic trucks has become much more than a hobby. It has become an incredible opportunity to share the history and American legacy, preserving it for many generations to enjoy.” -Greg Nuss
