Premier Truck Rental (PTR) is a revolutionary company based in Fort Wayne, Indiana, spearheaded by a father/daughter power duo, Rob Troxel and Adriene Horn. Troxel, the company’s CEO, brings with him decades of experience in the utility equipment rental industry, while Horn, the company president, is a visionary leader who has helped the business achieve unprecedented growth and success. 

PTR is a fleet truck rental business that works to provide customized work trucks and trailers to its’ nationwide customer base. It’s unlike any other rental business in the country, boasting high-quality units for customers, paired with exceptional service and in-depth industry knowledge.

“Customization and customer service are our foundation,” says Troxel. “It’s our top priority to make sure that our customers are well taken care of and equipped with the best trucks, trailers and specialty equipment for their projects. We’re here for them every step of the way.” 

Troxel’s vast expertise, relationships with loyal customers and strong industry connections have been instrumental in the company’s success. He understands that larger companies may lose sight of the importance of customer service, but as a family-owned business, PTR is nimble and responsive to its customers’ needs.

“We have the ability to move quickly to address customer issues and work directly with them to ensure we are meeting their needs,” he explains. “We have an in-house team of automotive technicians who build our trucks to meet customer requirements.” 

Horn has been a driving force behind PTR’s growth and is an inspiration to all aspiring business leaders. Her passion for the business and her ability to forge strong partnerships with local companies have helped PTR stand out in a competitive industry.

The company’s remarkable growth is a testament to its dedication to customers and an unwavering commitment to excellence. In just nine years, PTR has undergone three expansions and is now opening an 80,000 square foot state-of-the-art facility in Fort Worth, Texas. This new location will offer more exciting opportunities for talented individuals to join its team and allow the organization to serve more customers.

“It’s thrilling to see how much we’ve grown over the last nine years in the Greater Fort Wayne area,” says Horn. “Our expansion in Texas will take us to the next level, allowing us to reach a wider customer base and drive momentum in the Fort Worth community.”
