Autocrane service bodies rusting out

komatsukid · 2020-10-29 19:21

hello, just wondering if anyone else is seeing their autocrane service truck bodies rusting out within a few years of purchasing them. The dealer i work for started buying autocrane bodies a few years ago and some of the 2018s are already rusting. Anyone else have issues like this?

    That’s too bad to hear about considering what the Titan bodies cost. Autocrane really brags about their A60 Galvanneal steel and their paint. I think they offer a five-year rust through guarantee. What part of the country are you located? Salted roads?

    I live in Michigan, so yeah salt on the roads.
