    Culver City California has taken delivery of new natural gas front-loading refuse trucks.

    The trucks, built on Autocar chassis and equipped with Amrep bodies and AFV fuel systems, are the second batch of vehicles purchased from Carmenita Truck Center. They will replace 8-year-old compressed natural gas front loaders.

    The trucks are powered by Cummins ISL-G, CNG engines rated at 320 hp. Los Angeles Freightliner will provide the after-sales service and support.
