pleased to extend our drive axle technologies to the Volvo VN,"
said Dana Chairman and CEO Michael J. Burns. "This product offering

specified with other leading Roadranger components, the result is
the industry's only torsionally tuned system of drivetrain
components," said Nick Cole, president, Dana Heavy Vehicle
Technologies and Systems Group. "We look forward to further
developing our relationship with this leading global
commercial-vehicle manufacturer." Volvo Trucks North America is
