Paccar Leasing Co., PacLease, now offers a full-service truck leasing program for those in vocational fields. PacLease says the move already is benefiting many companies that were quick to transition toward leasing when it began offering vocational leasing and maintenance services. “Full-service truck leasing is new to vocational customers who historically have opted to own and maintain their equipment,” says Bob Southern, president of PacLease.
According to Southern, there are two key reasons why leasing appeals to vocational companies: First, they can take advantage of off-balance sheet financing that a lease offers; and second, they can outsource maintenance to experienced technicians. “With the advent of new technology in trucks and engines, coupled with a shortage of qualified technicians, it makes sense to use a service network that knows the equipment inside and out,” Southern says. “And that’s PacLease.”
In addition, Southern says that Kenworth and Peterbilt trucks are workhorse trucks that deliver the payload capacity, reliability and operator satisfaction vocational customers need. “PacLease is a natural fit for the vocational industry since we custom-spec the equipment with our customers,” says Southern. “We know local size and weight laws. Moreover, we have relationships with mixer, dump and other body and trailer builders to complete the equipment package.”
For those interested in the vocational program, PacLease has a new brochure that explains the benefits of a leasing program, plus offers insight from vocational companies currently leasing with PacLease.
