The Future Looks Good


GM first introduced Americans to the concept of highways and expressways at the “Futurama” exhibit during the World’s Fair in 1939. The inspiration behind highways was to facilitate the journeys people desired and better connect people by paving a pathway between cities and towns. As 2039 approaches, this concept of connection and desire to take people places they want to go remains at the core of GM’s vision for a future with zero crashes, zero emissions and zero congestion. This is the future GM envisions – and it looks good.

Work Truck Wednesday - When You Need A Van With More Room and Greater Utility





Cargo vans are super, but sometimes you need more room and more flexibility, along with more height. Here is a great answer. This is a cargo van that is called a cutaway van because it is cut off behind the driver and then a commercial truck body is added. This provides more room, more height, greater flexibility with cargo placement and is even equipped with two rows of E-track to keep that cargo where you want it. In addition, it is made with FRP sides instead of sheet metal which offers exceptional durability and a good-sized flat billboard for your business info at the same time. More? How about the convenience of that roll-up rear door with full-width access even when parallel parked?

We also have larger cutaway van bodies in stock if you need even more room.

Introducing HPS from American Eagle


American Eagle Unveils Hybrid Power Source (HPS)

Garner, Iowa – American Eagle has taken power to the next level by introducing the American Eagle® Hybrid Power Source (HPS). The product launched today at the NTEA Work Truck Show®2020 in Indianapolis, Indiana (Booth 3267). It will also be highlighted in the Stellar Industries booth (Central Hall C1-C2, Booth C20627) at CONEXPO-CON/AGG® 2020, March 10-14 in Las Vegas.

The new HPS is a self-contained hydraulic power source that utilizes automotive-grade lithium-ion technology to provide a system that is low-voltage, anti-idle compliant and quiet during operation. The HPS allows companies to reduce their carbon footprint by operating hydraulic equipment without the use of the chassis engine.

Using the reliability of Volta® lithium-ion technology, the American Eagle H PS offers robust power for hydraulic equipment operation, up to eight hours of run time and more than 10 years of life. With 13.5 kWh of output, operators will have plenty of available power to meet their equipment needs.

The HPS is always ready with multiple options to keep the unit charged. It comes equipped with an integrated 48V chassis alternator, allowing the system to be charged from the chassis on-site or while driving to the next job site. Shore power charging is also an option with a standard 120V, 15-amp connection to enable the unit to slow charge while parked for the night or when chassis engine charging is unavailable.

When using the HPS, the system allows for 100 percent emission-free operation, reduced fuel consumption, decreased engine maintenance costs, quiet operation, and compliance with idle mitigation requirements because the chassis engine is no longer needed during equipment operation.

The utilization of a 48V system enables the entire unit to qualify as low-voltage, removing the need for compliance with high-voltage placarding. This is key as fleets evaluate the use of an electrical power source and the impact to their operators.

The HPS is prepared for multiple climates with internal thermal protection to protect the energy packs’ core temperature in extreme heat or cold. The system also comes equipped with a heating system that will automatically activate to keep the unit’s core temperature above the minimum for charging.

Simplicity in upfitting a fleet is made easy when it comes to the fully self-contained HPS unit. Weighing only 790 pounds and measuring 47 inches long x 21 inches wide x 28 inches high, the system can be sidepack-mounted or mounted in the load bed, lengthwise, making it the perfect addition to any work-truck package.

“As the need for hybrid technology continues to grow in the markets we serve, we are excited to bring the HPS to our customers,” said Tim Worman, Product Manager at Stellar Industries. “The capabilities of the HPS will enable fleets to upfit their vehicles to meet sustainability targets, while providing the power needed to operate their hydraulic equipment.”

The introduction of the HPS builds on American Eagle’s long-standing success in manufacturing truck accessories for the work truck industry. The addition of the HPS to the American Eagle product line expands customers’ ability to fully upfit their work truck with all the latest tools from one trusted source.
