M&K Truck Centers acquires 5 Iowa & Minnesota dealerships

M&K Truck Centers is excited to announce continued record growth following the successful acquisition of five GATR Truck Center dealerships—three located in Iowa and two in Minnesota.
This acquisition, finalized on May 29, 2026, involves substantially all of the assets of five GATR Truck Center locations serving Iowa and Minnesota.

Effective immediately, M&K will expand its product offerings across Iowa and Minnesota.

• Cedar Rapids, IA: Volvo, Mack, and Hino
• Waukee, IA: Volvo and Hino
• Waterloo, IA: Volvo and Mack
• Elk River, MN: Volvo
• Sauk Rapids, MN: Volvo and Hino

Full support services & parts will be available at all locations. With this acquisition, M&K expands its footprint to 38 locations across nine states, marking a significant milestone for the company. M&K Truck Centers has retained nearly all employees from GATR Truck Center, welcoming over 200 talented people into the M&K family.

We look forward to an exciting future as we work together to integrate these operations. By incorporating the operations from these five locations, our company will enhance its offerings in new and used truck sales, trailer sales, parts, service, rentals, and leasing. “This expansion allows us to increase our capabilities and strengthen our presence in the Central region. We remain committed to meeting our customers' needs and providing exceptional service throughout this transition and for many years to come,” stated Josh Wolf, M&K’s COO.

The expansion will benefit both M&K customers and current GATR Truck customers. With access to a full network of M&K dealerships in Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Missouri, Ohio, Pennsylvania & West Virginia, GATR Truck customers will have greater convenience throughout the Midwest’s busiest trucking corridors. Meanwhile, M&K customers will have access to additional locations in Minnesota and Iowa.
