Two companies that have become extremely busy thanks to the energy sector of the economy has joined together. Prairie Truck Equipment and Dakota Fluid Power are now under one ownership group from Sioux Falls. That said...customers should expect to see very little change...
(Curt Schall - Prairie Truck Equipment) "The new owners have told us that the intention is to keep all the same employees, keep the business doing the same type of work and the same products. Pretty much status quo."

The sale of Prairie Truck became official about a month ago.
