Winners tend to have one thing in common when it comes to adversity – instead of a stumbling block, they use obstacles as stepping stones.  Such has been the case at MJ TruckNation with Martin at the helm.

Going into the chaos of the uncharted waters of the COVID-19 pandemic, Martin closed up shop, locking the doors for the safety of his employees, customers, and of course, himself.  Strict measures were put into place which would eventually lead to the reopening of [...]

Going electric is the latest trend in vehicle technology.  As it stands, the vehicle earning the prestigious title of being the world’s biggest electric vehicle is a whopping 45-ton mining dump truck endearingly dubbed the “eDumper”.

Electric vehicles aren’t the only concept trending.  Focus is being placed on sustainability and other eco-friendly features.  The eDumper is powered by a reserve of hydrogen for fuel as well as electricity.  It is designed for use in the mining industry, a field that is currently filled with controversy with many believing it is guilty of destroying the earth [...]
