AWD Trucks, short for All Wheel Drive, was a British truck manufacturer that produced Bedford trucks from 1987 to 1992, until it was merged with Marshall Aerospace and Defence Group. It was formed when General Motors divested Bedford's core heavy trucks business in 1987, and it operated from Thirsk, England, making military vehicles and trucks, including the Bedford TK. The last truck of the company was discontinued in 1998, after which the Bedford name became entirely defunct.
