functions that took several trucks in the past. One truck
body
now can
perform more than one function.

function as a:
stake/flat deck, landscaping truck,
cube van, portable job site office, gravel box, motorhome style camper
truck, container truck, utility body truck, moving van, **ambulance,
welder's truck, tire repair truck, **personnel carrier for fire crews,

A FEW EXAMPLES OF TRUCK BODIES
PERFORMING MORE THAN 1
FUNCTION:
1. Cube van body loaded with tools and
equipment
- when on the truck - a service
van
- when off loaded at a job site - an
easily accessible secured storage unit
- when off-loaded at the shop - a tool
crib
(see two pictures
below)
2. Flat deck equipped with lockable
hinged covers. Covers hinge over recreational
vehicles when loaded on deck. Recreational
vehicles include snowmobiles, quad
bikes, dirt bikes, etc.
- when deck loaded on truck - a
dry secured recreational vehicle transporter
- easy on/off loading of
recreational vehicles from deck when deck
off-loaded to ground
- between outings and off season the deck doubles as a secured
recreational vehicle dry storage enclosure.
3. Motorhome style camper: the
restrictive between the fender well measurement of the pickup box is no
longer an issue for the camper. This innovative camper loads directly onto
the truck with the use of the under-body adapter and the camper floor
is a full 8-ft. in width. The hot water tank and batteries are located
below the floor and accessible from the exterior. As in a motorhome,
living quarters are now larger and exterior and interior storage is
also increased. The use of camper jacks and storage horses or
blocking is eliminated. The truck can be safely changed to a regular
truck in minutes.
The motorhome body can be used as the
job office/first aid station.
The Transformer loader will
outlast several truckswith a minimal amount of
maintenance.
Warranty - 2 year limited
parts and labor
COSTS SAVINGS
The Transformer system can be moved
from one
truck frame to another with minimal
costs prior
to trading in for a newer
truck.
Vehicles used for specific
and/or seasonal jobs can be eliminated.
Specific bodies can be manufactured
for specific jobs and the body can be used for storage as well as transportation purposes to reduce or eliminate
laborious on and off loading of materials for storage.
One vehicle can perform the tasks
that otherwise take several vehicles with different truck
bodies
A motorhome can be eliminated with
the use of this new system
A larger roomier camper can be
loaded on the truck
One truck can be used for work
and pleasure
Capital cost savings - one
vehicle not two or more to purchase
Lower depreciation costs - one
vehicle depreciates
Lower insurance costs -
one vehicle to insure
Lower vehicle
maintenance costs - one vehicle to maintain
