kscarbel2 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Transport Engineer / August 30, 2019 Ford Trucks has appointed TIP Trailer Services to provide warranty and other services as part of the truck maker’s aftersales network in Western Europe. The manufacturer’s new F-Max tractor premiered at the IAA event in Hanover last year and won international truck of the year. This led Ford to increase its targets and, in turn, the number of service locations in Europe. Ford Trucks says it aims to have dealers in 51 countries by next year. Serhan Turfan, vice president for Ford Trucks, says: “The worldwide appreciation and acclaim for the F-Max, which we developed from scratch, has been an important driving force that has increased our international growth target. “In parallel with our growth target in Western European markets, the cooperation with TIP Trailer Services will contribute significantly to our goal of continuous customer support. We believe that this cooperation will bring very fruitful results for both parties.” .

Red Horse Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Hmnnn?? Trailer made solutions. Hope they have been working on what pulls the trailers. How about it Kevin. Are a good percentage of these TIP locations currently either heavy truck dealers or into heavy truck service? I know in the old days I would not take my power unit to a Fruehauf Branch.
