Last December, Hino Motors announced they would halt production in their North American factories in West Virginia and Ontario.  The suspension came on the heels of issues with the engine certification testing process for the new model A09C, JO8E, and JO5E engines.  Vehicle production and sales are expected to kick back on in October and Hino fans couldn’t be happier.

Since the past year was anything but normal with the pandemic wreaking chaos on all phases of manufacturing and deliveries, Hino is currently investigating the impact that the pause in production brought about but the verdict is predicted to have the same result – resuming as planned.

The issues began within Phase 2 of the Environmental Protection Agency that focuses on greenhouse gas emission standards presented challenges for Hino certification.  Due to the hold-up, the Hino Board [...]

If you’re feeling a little washed up from the 9 to 5 rat race, or you’re just looking for a lucrative side hustle, why not start a mobile car detailing business in a Box Truck? 

The mobile car washing industry rakes in an average of 10 billion dollars a year and is growing at an annual rate of 3% which is ideal because there’s demand but not a lot of competition. 

Big Benefits of Owning a Mobile Car Wash

Mobility matters!  People are busy.  Although 9 out of 10 people polled stated they feel better when their vehicle is clean, over half also admitted they don’t have time to mess with it.  Full-service car washes are hugely popular but even finding the time to get to one can be a challenge.


Flatbed Trucks are in such hot demand, manufacturers are having trouble keeping up.   The trend is projected to continue on into the next few years and even beyond.  While the Covid-19 post pandemic vehicle availability crisis does play a small part in the frenzy, there’s a lot more to it.

Why Are Flatbed Trucks so Sought After?

While sales on other types of trucks, mainly cargo-contained Freight Trucks, the demand for Flatbed Trucks has been massively increasing in past recent years, even before the pandemic reared its ugly head.
