Episode 329: Being reactive costs the trucking industry millions of dollars every year. Once something breaks down, it is costing you so much more money than if you planned for it in advance. Most people understand this for fleets and owner-operators, but we see this all the time as we consult with heavy-duty parts manufacturers, distributors, and service companies as well. Ignoring parts of your business that are not working well or are looking like they will soon break down, is not a good solution for a lasting and successful business.
Our featured guest is Bill Fortney, Western Regional Sales Manager for Webasto. He explains that Webasto has a full line of fuel operated heaters which save fuel and reduce wear and tear on the engine by keeping the engine and cab warm without requiring idling. Planning ahead in the summer and fall and proactively making sure that commercial vehicles are ready for the winter can help us avoid spending more time and money when the winter does come.
