National Truck Protection

What National Truck Protection does

National Truck Protection Co., Inc. (NTP), operating under the Premium 2000 brand, is a privately held administrator of Vehicle Service Contracts (VSCs) and ancillary protection products for Class 2-8 commercial vehicles in the United States and Canada. Founded in 1983 and headquartered in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, the company sells extended warranty products through a multi-tier distribution model: a regional field force of Dealer Performance Directors (DPDs) covering every U.S. state and Canada, a self-serve eDealer quoting portal with a VIN decoder, an inside Virtual F&I sales team, and a dedicated fleet accounts organization for enterprise customers. Coverage tiers span from Preferred Plus Bronze/Silver/Gold for medium-duty vehicles to Elite/Preferred and Supreme/Ultra 2 (no-limits) for Class 8 heavy-duty trucks, with specialized vocational, fire apparatus, and emergency-vehicle SKUs plus add-ons such as SafeGlass nanotechnology windshield protection, Road Hazard Tire & Wheel, GAP, and the NTP Fuel Advantage fuel card.

The technology stack centers on a VSC administration platform with a 24/7/365 claims portal, an 8,500+ Preferred Repair Provider service locator, and dealer-side quoting and contract-management portals. SafeGlass protection is a patented liquid-nanotechnology product that the company claims increases windshield chip/crack resistance by up to 80%. NTP generates revenue from one-time VSC premiums (multi-year terms) plus recurring dealer commissions, fleet profit-participation arrangements, and white-label administration fees; Schneider National is a publicly disclosed flagship counterparty for used-truck warranty administration. The company employs 11-50 staff and reports no public revenue or external institutional ownership in the available sources.

The commercial model relies on high-volume dealer attach at the point of vehicle sale, supplemented by After-Sales Outreach (a managed follow-up program claimed to recover up to 30% of declined sales) and Virtual F&I services for dealers lacking internal F&I infrastructure. Customer segments include commercial-vehicle dealers, fleet operators, lease/rental companies, owner-operators, and fire/municipal fleets, with named relationships including Roadshow Services, Hunter Buffalo Service Team, and Schneider National, Inc. (NYSE: SNDR).
