Hino Trucks announced to its dealers this week that the 2007 EPA compliant engine surcharge will be $3,950. Nick Vermet, Senior Vice President of Sales, Marketing and Customer Support of Hino Trucks, said, “This announcement places our dealers in a very advantageous position against the competition who have announced 2007 EPA surcharges in the range of $4,500 to $5,700. Because of our ability to share technology with trucks in Japan, to meet the Japan 2005 emission regulations, we are able to provide our customers with a proven, cost effective solution. The combination of our excellent fuel economy, proven durability and high demand for our conventional trucks in the resale market, make our trucks a great value for our customers.” Hino Trucks has scheduled a series of 2008 model year launch events for its dealers and customers beginning the week of October 16, 2006.
