Hino Trucks has partnered with Morgan Corp. on a quick delivery, dry freight van body program for its conventional trucks. Hino said the partnership will give its dealers across the country access to faster turnaround times on 24- to 26-ft. dry freight van bodies and provides customers with shorter lead times.

Available in October, this Quick Turn stock program will serve 46 states (excluding Hawaii, Alaska, California and Nevada). Trucks will be stocked through Morgan’s regional manufacturing operations in Morgantown, Pa., Rydal, Ga., Corsicana, Texas, and Lakeland, Fla. Despite regional stocking, customers will receive the benefit of consistent, national pricing that maintains the same price on the program bodies through all Hino dealers, the truck maker said.

“Morgan’s nationwide presence offers our customers unmatched service and support. Morgan has been a first-rate supplier to Hino Trucks over the last number of years, and prides itself on industry-leading innovation, quality and delivery,” said Glenn Ellis, vice president of marketing for Hino Trucks. “We look forward to expanding our body program offerings with Morgan while maintaining the high level of quality and satisfaction that Hino customers have come to expect.”

The program is designed to have a 21-day turnaround from chassis or order receipt on stocked trucks, according to Chris Johnson, national account manager for Morgan Corp., who added, “In today’s increasing economic climate, Morgan is committed to helping Hino customers cut their wait time, provide competitive pricing and ensure the best product on the road.”
