Do Your Homework Online First!

One of the great benefits of making a purchase in the digital age is being able to do your research online prior to coming in to a dealership.  Not only has this been a tremendous help for purchasers but it has also helped level the playing field for most dealers.  Competitive pricing and price integrity are now transparent as you can see a dealership's inventory online prior to walking in their door. We are constantly updating our inventory which can be found at www.fontanatrucksandtrailers.com. 

Once you've found a piece of equipment that looks promising you want to also do some research to see what that vehicle might be selling for.  Google can be your best friend in this stage of the buying process. Keep in mind as you compare costs that every vehicle is different and there are many factors that will affect pricing beyond the basic specs of a truck or trailer.  We've offered some tips for purchasing used trailers as well as things to consider when purchasing used semis.

As your search narrows down you'll want to eventually contact the dealership or stop in to

Inspect / Test Drive the Equipment.

This is your chance to make sure that what was advertised online is true to form.  Take your time with the equipment you're considering, ask the sales professionals questions about where it came from and weigh all your options against the price that is being asked.  If you are happy with what you see you'll want to move quick by either applying for credit or putting a deposit down.  This is extremely important with Used Equipment as typically no two trucks or trailers will be in exactly the same condition and shape.  Because your homework was done upfront there is no need to delay the process or continue looking as chances are the truck or trailer you've found might be purchased by someone else tomorrow.  

Here at Prime Time Equipment we take pride in helping our customers find the right equipment for their needs.  With a non-pushy environment and sales professionals that are more concerned with doing what's right for the customer, we have built a name for ourselves that revolves around great service and great equipment.  We look forward to helping you find the right Used Truck or Trailer in Fontana! 

5 Reasons to Consider UnderTray Systems Vs. Traditional Side Skirts

5 REASONS TO CONSIDER AERODYNAMIC UNDERTRAY SYSTEMS

SmartTruck  has a patented Aerodynamic UnderTray System that provides a unique alternative to Trailer Side Skirts.  Here are five reasons to consider UnderTrays vs Side Skirts for your next trailer:

1.  Increased Fuel Efficiency

With verified fuel savings by U.S. EPA's SmartWay Transport Partnership, even SmartTruck's basic unit, the UT-1 System, provides a 5.5% MPG Improvement at highway speeds.  This translates to 7 Gallons of Fuel Saved per 1000 miles.  For those willing to invest a little more, the UT-6 System with Side Fairings provides up to 10% MPG Improvement or 12.5 Gallons saved per 1000 miles.

With the fuel savings provided with either system most owner-operators or fleets will recover their investment within the first year!

2.  Less Maintenance Than Traditional Skirts

The UnderTray System is installed inside the footprint of your trailer high off the ground to avoid contact with steep loading docks or other obstacles.  Made of durable polyethylene plastic it is suitable for all weather.  Whereas with a blowout skirts can often be damaged, ripped or completely destroyed, the SmartTruck Undertray System is designed to last as long as your trailer.

3.  Easier Accessibility

With traditional skirts a driver loses access to the undercarriage of a trailer where spare tires and other parts may be stored.  With the unique design of the SmartTruck UnderTray Systems a driver now has complete access to the spacing beneath their trailer.

4.  A Bolder Look

Most truck drivers take pride in their equipment.  The design of the UnderTray Systems provides a sleeker look, as SmartTruck's catch phrase proves:  "Changing the Shape of Trucking."

5.  CARB Compliant Trailer System

To operate in California a fleet is required to meet the CARB requirements for trailers.  Whether you decide to use traditional skirts or move to a more modern solution like SmartTruck's Undertrays, a trailer system for fuel efficiency will be necessary to avoid fines that could be potentially catastrophic.  Prime Time Equipment can help your fleet meet California CARB requirements.
