THERE’S MORE TO US THAN TRUCKS
At JX, we are trying to make a difference, on and off the road. We aspire to be our best, continuously improving, strengthening & building value to our Associates, Communities, Customers & Industries we serve.
Community service, support & engagement is woven into the fabric of our organization’s culture. Besides supporting countless charities and organizations, including local food pantries, hospitals, shelters, customer charitable causes and foundations, JX has established several company-wide community support initiatives.
JX has long been a leader in the transportation industry. Over the years, our parts, service, leasing, sales, and rental solutions have brought us great success. For that we are grateful. That’s why, as a company, we seek out local community needs, and as a group, give back to the communities in which we live and work.
I am proud to be part of this family business, the vision of what we can accomplish together and the many families & communities we support. In the end, our actions are our legacy. We’re more than just trucks.

Dee Jorgensen
A LEGACY TO LIVE BY
Chuck Jorgensen has been at the forefront of JX since the day he opened the first dealership. However, Dee Jorgensen, Chuck’s late wife, has left a lasting impression of her own on the direction of the company. Her generous heart, passion for education, and love for her community has greatly influenced the culture of JX.
In the midst of a job and raising her children, Dee also volunteered as a tutor for special needs children and adults, helping them learn to read and write. While spending countless hours volunteering at the Food Pantry of Waukesha County, Dee led by example. When other volunteers saw the impact she had on the lives of visitors, they were inspired to do the same. This generous attitude was passed down from Dee and Chuck to the couple’s children – Thomas, Eric, and Kurt – and grandchildren. Eric Jorgensen, President & CEO, has worked to build a culture that supports positive change in the communities where JX locations reside.
Even during years of difficult financial times, every JX dealership made a donation to a local charity. Associates were also encouraged to develop an ongoing relationship. Although Dee passed away in October 2014, her legacy remains a beacon of light for many.
