PENDLETON — RWC Group took control Sept. 1 of the former Woodpecker Truck & Equipment business off Exit 202 on Interstate 84 west of Pendleton. RWC is a commercial truck and bus dealership, based in Phoenix, Arizona, and operating at 15 locations in Arizona, California, Washington, Alaska and now Oregon.

“Things are going well,” Pendleton manager Jeremy Russell said. “More than high diesel prices, shortages of microchips and other parts have affected sales. It’s the same throughout the nation across the whole automotive industry. If you order a truck now, you’ll have to wait about two years to take delivery.”
