Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Dodge Trucks Fill All Requirements

Dodge trucks are so skillfully engineered and so scientifically constructed that they adapt themselves with remarkable ease to any type of special body or additional equipment.

Among the special types of bodies usually specified by truck users are the various kinds of dump trucks. Dodge chassis are so finely balanced that they operate with the maximum of efficiency whether the dump is by gravity or by hydraulic hoist.

If you have an important hauling job in which reduction of costs plays a principal part, it is conceded that the use of trailers will go a long way toward solving your problem. Dodge units are well adapted for use with trailers of every type, and, combined with the advantages of trailer use, may be counted on to cut hauling costs in a number of different ways.

Fuel cost is reduced as well as maintenance and depreciation. There is more body space for the carrying of pay loads and increased flexibility and ease of handling.

Fire apparatus, ambulance, dairy trucks, all are highly specialised uses, yet for these and for dozens of others, Dodge has proved itself one truck which admirably fills all requirements.
