Good News for Hino Truck Customers
Extra Support Available 24-7

Souderton, PA – A brand new Hino medium-duty truck franchise officially opened for business at Bergey’s Truck Centers this month. The Souderton franchise is Bergey’s second location to join the country’s growing network of more than 180 Hino dealers.

“Since it entered the U.S. market in 1984, Hino’s evolution really caught our attention,” says Steve Rybacki, Bergey’s medium duty truck manager. “Aside from being a member of the Toyota Group and America’s fastest growing medium duty truck manufacturer, Hino has proven itself with several customer satisfaction awards from J.D. Power and Associates. The company also stands behind its products with one of the industry’s best warranties. So we jumped at the chance to offer our customers a cut above in medium duty equipment.”

After establishing a strong customer base as a Hino dealer in Trenton, NJ, the decision was made to expand to Souderton (a suburb of Philadelphia). Bergey’s newest franchise carries a full line of Hino medium-duty trucks backed by a knowledgeable and dedicated Hino sales staff. Customers have 24-hour access to an extensive Hino parts inventory with certified Hino technicians on site. Conveniently located off I-476 at the Lansdale exit, the new Hino franchise is also in a great position to help transient customers as they drive through the area.

“We’re fully equipped to maintain our customers’ trucks as well as perform warranty work – any time day or night,” Rybacki says. “Around-the-clock service gives our customers an extra advantage out on the road. And now with locations in New Jersey and Pennsylvania, we can provide our customers with an even stronger support system whenever they need it – just another way Bergey’s is ‘Keeping Customers on the Road™.’”

Turn to Green Tires and Save Some Green

Although local organic food and hybrid cars may speak differently, going green doesn’t always mean you have to spend more green. In fact, there are some earth-friendly moves you can make that cost you nothing – like recycling and taking shorter showers. And even some that can save you money – like purchasing retreaded tires.

If you like the sound of that one, you might be interested to know that in addition to offering Ringtread by Marangoni, Bergey’s Commercial Tire Centers recently added a new retread to the line-up: ContiLifeCycle products.

Developed by Continental, the retreaded ContiLifeCycle tires are produced from flat precure treads featuring the same pattern designs, rubber compounding and tread technology found in new Continental truck tires.

“Some manufacturers use different rubber on their retreads, but not in this case,” says Adam Galie, commercial tire sales manager. “We’re excited to offer our customers top performance and the opportunity to save money in a retread that has no discernible differences from the new tires.”

To cash in on the benefits, don’t get rid of your worn-out new tires. Bergey’s will take them off your hands, regardless of the brand, and retread them with Continental retreads. We also keep a stock inventory of the product for quick turnaround.

“We have many fleet customers now running different ContiLifeCycle tread designs and we’ve been conducting some in-house performance tests as well. The results to date have been impressive,” says Galie. “Price-wise, from initial cost to potential fuel-savings, it’s a highly attractive option and one I’m sure many trucking companies will turn to.”
