NEW ISUZU FSR FOR JIM’S SKIP BINS

Brian’s primary territory is central Doncaster but he also covers a wide area stretching all the way from Croydon in the east of Melbourne to the bayside suburb of Brighton.

Brian is involved with both commercial and residential skip bin drop off and collection and chose Isuzu based on his own research together with the excellent service he received from Patterson Cheney staff during the pre-purchase process.

The deck has been tailored to suit Brian’s needs and has a powerful 8 tonne lifting capacity. After living with and driving the Isuzu for a couple of months now Brian couldn’t be happier.

BLACK MOUNT TAKE DELIVERY OF THEIR

FIRST WESTERN STAR

The company has 15 B-Double trucks/tankers in their fleet, a mix of both 19 metre general access B-Doubles and 26 metre units.

The decision for Black Mount to purchase the Western Star came as a result of a combination of factors including the detailed spec requirements of the prime mover and the quality of service and attention to detail given to the company through the product evaluation period. In particular the assistance given by Westar Sales representative James Leo was a stand out factor.

Black Mount Operations Manager, Karl McEwan, reports that he was impressed with the service and product support offered by the staff at Westar Derrimut and specifically in relation to the way they were flexible with the scheduling of service work around Black Mount’s varying workloads.

The Western Star was collected from Westar along with 19 metre Tieman tankers on Monday the 25 of November and Karl reports that the new Western Star looks super smart with its stainless drive guards, bug deflector and headlight shrouds. Most importantly the vehicle is performing above and beyond all expectations. Good news all round!

CONTENTS// MARCH 2014

Westar Sales Consultant, Johan Middag, is seen here handing over the keys to a new MAN to Gavin & Damien Gibson of Gibson’s Groundspread. This is the nineteenth MAN that Johan has delivered to Gibson’s over the past three years.

The TGS 26.480 Tipper and 4axle dog combination will be put to work carting Revive Recycled Compost to local farmers within the Gippsland Region.

Revive Compost is produced by Gippsland Water’s Soil Organic Recycling Facility (SORF) which has been operating for a number of years. It has recently increased its production capacity and is now processing more green waste from the Melbourne Metro area. Previously this waste was placed into Melbourne landfill sites, however with the expanding facility and Gibson’s Groundspread’s growing demand for the Revive Recycled Compost, the SORF is now able to recycle more green waste.

Last year Gibson’s successfully signed up with Gippsland Water to transport the processed product from the SORF facility to local farmers around Gippsland and spread it on their farms.

The SORF facility is currently producing large amounts of the Revive Recycled Compost daily and is expected to gradually increase its production capacity as the demand for the product grows.

This is the first of 3 new MAN tipper and dog combinations which Gibson will use specifically for the SORF project - both feature graphics and sign writing relating to the new facility.

5 Ways Foodservices’ primary market area is metropolitan Melbourne; however they also service key regional centres throughout Victoria.

The main reason for 5Ways Foodservice success lies in the company’s motto, ‘That little bit more’ which is exactly the ethos the company commits to.

5Ways Foodservice was recognised by business magazine BRW in 2006 when it was awarded the Number 1 ‘fastest growing start-up company in Australia’.

ISUZU FLEET PLAYS A

KEY FACTOR IN 5 WAYS

FOODSERVICE GROWTH

5 Ways Foodservice commenced operations in 2001, initially delivering solely to pizza shops. Since then, the company has grown substantially to be a major supplier of food service products to a diverse range of customers.

Today 5 Ways Foodservice is a broad line distributor offering a selection of over 5000 products.

Page 5: Truckforce vol4 iss2

David Jackson overseas the Logistical Operations within 5 Ways Foodservice and has been intimately involved with the selection and purchase of Isuzu trucks since their first purchase of two new Isuzu’s back in 2001.

Today the company has over 20 Isuzus in the fleet – and this includes the original two models which have clocked up over 500,000km each and are still performing faultlessly.

“They’re a great design, comfortable and

very reliable – we really don’t have any issues with our Isuzus, so when you take all that into account they represent great value for money,” David said.

“The main change over the years has been the move to auto transmission (AMT) models which we’ve found has made our drivers that little bit more relaxed at the end of the day, especially given the stop-start nature of the driving they do,” David added.

“We’ve always stuck with Isuzu – we’ve had a great relationship with the sales

guys at Westar and had a great run with the Isuzu trucks, so we don’t see this changing in the future,” David went on to say.

MANOEUVRABILITY A KEY FACTOR IN

APEX STEEL’S DECISION TO PURCHASE NEW

4700 MODEL

LEADING STEEL AND BUILDING SUPPLIES COMPANY APEX HAS RECENTLY TAKEN DELIVERY OF A NEW WESTERN STAR 4700 MODEL FOR USE IN THE TRANSPORT OF ITS DIVERSE ROOFING AND RAINWATER PRODUCT RANGE. IN FACT APEX IS THE FIRST OPERATOR OF A WESTERN STAR 4700 IN VICTORIA.

06

Page 7: Truckforce vol4 iss2

The Apex group is an all Australian, privately owned national organisation that has achieved considerable growth due to a continuous expansion of its product range and by providing stand out levels of service. The Apex Group is quietly building a reputation of being the market leaders in the manufacture and distribution of steel and steel building products.

The company’s major manufacturing plant is located in Dandenong, Victoria with branches and depots right up the Eastern seaboard.

The manufacture of metal roofing products, water tanks and rainwater products is a key part of the group’s activities and it was this division that Transport Manager Clint Rockman had in mind when looking for a new truck.

“We do a lot of roofing deliveries to the Mornington Peninsula, Philip Island and other coastal towns where streets can be narrow and visibility constricted. Because we wanted to mount a large on-board crane I needed a bonneted truck, but I was also after a truck that had a good turning circle and excellent visibility,” Clint said.

“We already had a number of Western Stars on the fleet, so I was familiar with the product and its running gear and we’ve always held them in high regard. So when I heard about the new 4700 model with its set-back front axle and sloped bonnet offering the dual benefits of excellent manoeuvrability and visibility I quickly checked it out and subsequently ordered one,” Clint went on to say.

The truck is used to transport roofing sheets and assorted rainwater products such as gutters and downpipes to both commercial premises and residential houses.

The company is heavily involved with the manufacture and sale of rain water tanks and has its own ‘Slimfit’ range of oblong shape rainwater tanks that provide a space efficient water storage system.

“We’ve had the truck for a few months now and its working out really well. We tend to have a policy of one driver for each truck and the driver of the 4700 loves it. The visibility really makes his life easier, whilst the manoeuvrability provides better access and movement within tight spaces and narrow streets. The quietness within the cab is another thing that our driver raves about,” Clint added.

“The other benefit that the 4700 model provides is the fuel economy. The relatively small Cummins 400hp engine provides plenty of power for our needs but combines that with excellent fuel economy,” Clint went onto say.

“All in all it’s just a really honest truck that suits our needs perfectly. I’ll definitely be grabbing another one sometime in the future,” Clint summed up.

When current owner and manager Nick Chapman was looking for a new truck to fulfil an important and demanding role he had a long list of requirements.

“The specific requirement was for a truck that could cope with high engine hours and low kilometres in a very demanding application. To that end it had to have high clearance, but I was also after features such as no grease points, auto transmission, downward facing exhaust, and it had to be Euro 5 with Adblue. So I had a very clear idea of what I was looking for,” Nick said.

Nick admits he didn’t know much about MAN and to date had operated other truck brands. However, following a chat with a friend who spoke in glowing terms about the MAN product he decided to check them out for himself and duly spoke with Sales Consultant Tony Lamana at Patterson Cheney Trucks Dandenong.

Tony arranged for Nick to come down to the dealership to view a TGS 26.480 6x4 Hi- Clearance model. After checking out all the specs, a test drive in a 540 model was all that was needed to convince Nick this was the truck for him and an order was immediately placed. The truck was delivered to Nick in December 2013.

“I can’t speak highly enough about Tony at Paterson Cheney – he was exceptionally helpful and knowledgeable about the product which made the purchase process completely stress free – which hasn’t always been the case in the past with other truck purchases,” Nick added.

“Quite simply the MAN ticked all the boxes – I wasn’t intending to buy an MAN but I’m so glad I did - I’m super impressed with it. It’s doing everything I need it to do and then some,” Nick went on to say

“My driver David also loves his new MAN. It’s quiet, comfortable, the TipMatic transmission is great and it goes particularly well - overall it’s just a great truck,” said Nick.

Like many new MAN owners, Nick is also discovering a major key benefit of the vehicle - the outstanding fuel efficiency. “In comparison to the other European truck that we had, the MAN is recording substantially better fuel economy figures – a figure that will only get better over time,” Nick enthused.

The excellent fuel economy combined with the 60,000km service intervals means that Nick can look forward to low ‘whole-of-life’ operating costs.

This positive experience with his first MAN means Nick will certainly be looking at additional MANs for other applications. ”No question about it, I would certainly buy another MAN in the future,” Nick summed up.

A TRUE FAMILY-SIZED SUVThe all-new seven seat Isuzu MU-X redefines the boundaries of adventure. Whether you’re navigating peak-hour on the weekday school run or traversing whatever the wildest weekend can throw at you, the all-new Isuzu MU-X has you covered for the routine, extreme, and everything in between.

Borrowing styling cues from its D-MAX cousin, the all-new Isuzu MU-X strikes a commanding stance thanks to its wedge-shaped fascia and muscular flared wheel arches.

Cloaked behind the sleek exterior lines of the all-new Isuzu MU-X lies a smartly designed interior that creates a wealth of space for all of the family – and then some. There’s room for a team of seven to travel safely, securely and in comfort.

There’s an abundance of clever storage compartments and with the second and third row seats ability to fold down, there’s also an overly generous cargo area.

A premium audio system with six speakers, iPod® and Bluetooth® phone connectivity is standard across the MU-X range.

MU-X delivers car-like ride and handling both on and off road via a new suspension geometry custom designed for the MU-X. With a bulletproof 4WD drivetrain mated to one of the world’s most robust diesel engines, the all-new Isuzu MU-X will also deliver you the opportunity to test your off-road ability like never before.

REAL-WORLD PERFORMANCE COUPLED WITH EXCEPTIONAL FUEL ECONOMYWith a three tonne towing capacity (braked) available on both 4x2 and 4x4 variants, the all-new Isuzu MU-X never knocks back hard work. Be it towing a boat, caravan, horse float or trailer, the MU-X does it effortlessly and with confidence.

The 3.0L Isuzu Hi-Power diesel engine delivers 130kW of power and 380Nm of torque. A high-pressure common-rail fuel injection system makes the most of every drop of fuel, and the intercooled VGS (Variable Geometry System) turbocharger provides excellent response over the engine’s entire rev range.

This superb powerplant produces an amazing fuel economy figure of just 8.2* litres per 100 km.

The MU-X’s automatic transmission with sequential sports mode is electronically controlled by the transmission control module (TCM) and features an adaptive-learning function which constantly monitors brake and throttle applications.

Our truck customers are familiar with the Isuzu, Western Star and MAN brands. But what many people don’t realise is just how many other leading automotive brands fall under the Patterson Cheney umbrella.

In addition to the aforementioned truck brands, today you can look to Patterson Cheney for Honda, Holden, Toyota cars and recreational vehicles, Mercedes-Benz Passenger Cars and Vans, Isuzu D-MAX & MU-X, as well as Honda lawn, garden and power equipment products.

And there are a couple of very good reasons why it’s worth talking to us if you’re in the market for any of the above brands.

Firstly, because our buying power is so big, we can pass the savings on to you as well as offering you a great range of competitive finance packages.

Secondly, you’ll experience the same great service that you’ve come to expect from any of our ‘other’ Dealerships – we didn’t get this big without looking after our customers, no matter if they’re buying new, used, parts, service or finance.

All our staff have an absolute commitment to customer satisfaction – they know what they’re talking about, so you can rely on their advice.

So if you’re in the market for one of the brands above, your first stop should be to talk to your existing truck sales consultant who will point you in the right direction.
