How Toyota stole the (Detroit Auto) show
Lots of cool truck news is pouring in out of Detroit this week. Ford pulled the curtain back on the highly-anticipated F-150. We got a good and up-close look at the 2015 GMC Canyon, which was also expected. What wasn’t necessarily on the radar was the insanely awesome FT-1 concept that Toyota put on display […]

These guys laugh at the Ice Road Truckers
You’ve seen the show Ice Road Truckers, right? Pretty cool show; a series about truckers who haul mega-tons of equipment over a road of frozen water. Lots of drama; the ice may crack and the truck could sink, and it’s a race against both nature and time. Not to mention it’s dang cold in the […]

Fiat-owned Chrysler may unlock cache of small displacement engines
In early December, Ram announced plans to launch a new small commercial van – The ProMaster City. Details at the time were minimal, other than it would be loosely based on the Fiat Doblo. Since that announcement, Fiat has swallowed what parts of Chrysler it didn’t already own, and the soon-to-be-fully-merged-company is likely to (eventually) bring […]

Technology is critical, but people still make fleets successful
Don’t get between Grandma and the delivery of Christmas presents meant for her babies: That’s my advice for the New Year, especially for companies with hard working truck fleets who deliver directly to consumers.

Droning on about drones
A few weeks ago, 60 Minutes aired a piece that unveiled some pretty cutting-edge package delivery technology from Amazon: a delivery drone. Since then, the Internet (and my Facebook newsfeed) has been lit ablaze by people who, for whatever reason, fear this kind of technology.

Fleet image important, but company must deliver
I’ve done business recently with a couple of companies that I didn’t know anything about, but I liked the look of their trucks and took a chance. Image isn’t everything, but when you’re a local business you’re missing opportunities if the fleet doesn’t carry your brand into the streets.
