Work Truck Wednesday! It's Landscaping Season. Here's A Great Truck For That...






Yes, it is landscaping season! Of course, in the Southland, it is a year-round season! This is why we carry a number of Landscape Dump trucks ready to go to work today.

Now here is a well-designed Landscape Dump and it is a bargain as well. Let's look at the huge benefits of this particular truck example:

  • This unit has a 12' dump bed with swing-away rear gates.
  • The overall length of this truck is about the same as a regular pickup with an 8' bed.
  • This truck has a wheelbase similar to a Corvette and has the shortest turning radius you will find in a landscaping truck--even considerably shorter than the pickup with the 8' bed.
  • This unit has a gas V-8 engine.
  • This unit has such heavy-duty components including frame, axles, and wheels that it is designed to be able to operate at maximum GVWR all the time.
  • This truck is actually fun to drive!
  • Strangely enough parallel parking is a snap with this truck.
  • There is comfortable seating for 3.
  • The cab easily tilts for major engine access.
  • Much greater visibility in this truck than in other trucks.
That is just some of the highlights of the attributes of this truck. Give us a call at 951-252-2980 and let us help you find the perfect landscaping rig for your needs.

Material Rack vs Forklift-Loadable Rack. What Are The Differences?


Michael Osborne demonstrates the differences between the standard Material Rack vs the Forklift-Loadable Rack. Generally speaking, the material rack is loaded by hand and the forklift-loadable rack can be loaded with a forklift. It mainly depends on what materials you need to carry and how often. Both racks carry material and how that material needs to get up there is going to determine the best rack for you. At Paradise Fleet, we carry both designs in stock and if you would like to see the differences in person, we are happy to show you for yourself. Call Michael Osborne or one of our knowledgeable fleet pros at 951-252-2980 Check out our huge selection of ready-to-go-to-work-today trucks at https://paradisefleet.com

Work Truck Wednesday - Crew Cab Knapheide KUV Protects Tools & Cargo





The Knapheide KUV is extremely popular with plumbers and other contractors on cutaway chassis and for larger bodies on the new Silverado Medium Duty or the Low Cab Forward chassis, but the KUV-CC (CC means conventional cab) is becoming more and more popular with a wide variety of contractors and service providers. There is a very good reason. The KUV is an enclosed service body and the one shown here is the low roof model, and it comes in two other roof heights for those who need that flexibility. Because it is enclosed, your cargo is protected inside and your tools and other gear are stowed in the compartments on the outside. 

Want to get really creative with this unit? We can add a bed slider to make it easy to get things in and out, and there are numerous other ideas that can be helpful as well. Let our team help you find the perfect solution for your business needs by calling 951-252-2980.

This unit has special financial incentives because it was used as an executive demo and so it is already broken in and ready to go to work right away.
