Goodyear are one of the largest manufacturers of tyres, and when they required a new fleet of commercial vehicles they made tracks straight to Mercedes-Benz due to their renowned reliability and quality of vehicles.
The 20 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 313CDIs were supplied by Birmingham dealer Midlands Truck & Van and work for TruckForce, Goodyear Dunlop’s dedicated mobile truck tyre and breakdown service and this is seen as a major promotion for Mercedes Benz due to a Large company (Goodyear) choosing a large fleet of their vehicles.
They are based across Truck Force’s 15 operating centers, which act as hubs for some 100 satellite depots across England and Wales, and used by technicians who repair, replace and service customers’ tyres at their premises or at the roadside.
The Sprinters are fitted with engine-driven PTOs which power on-board compressors, as well as Hope Safe-T-bar rear safety bumpers and roof-mounted flashing beacons. They have replaced a fleet of similar-sized vehicles by another manufacturer.
Mercedes-Benz Sprinter’s are very well engineered, with high levels of safety and comfort and top-quality support from the manufacturer. It is also an excellent ‘fit’ for the compressor equipment which Good year install.
Truck Force provides a round-the-clock service to truck fleet operators of all sizes with the aim of prolonging tyre life, reducing tyre budget and keeping its customers’ vehicles on the move. Services include breakdown cover, routine maintenance, repairs, and scheduled replacement.
