Coolest Thing Made in NC For 2nd Consecutive Year

For the second year in a row, the coolest thing made in North Carolina comes on wheels and not in a bottle or a jar. The Western Star 49X, made by Daimler Trucks in Cleveland, has won the North Carolina Chamber’s second annual “Coolest Thing Made in NC” contest. The 49X beat four other finalists, including the Flucelvax flu vaccine made by Seqirus in Holly Springs and George’s BBQ sauce from Nashville.
