By loading cars vertically into specially designed railcars, this innovative method maximized space efficiency, allowing up to 30 cars per boxcar compared to the conventional 18, ultimately reducing freight costs by up to 40%. 𝗚𝗠 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿𝘀 spearheaded the development of the Vert-A-Pac, implementing unique oil baffles to prevent spills, customized carburetors and batteries, and plastic spacers to safeguard the powertrain during transit. This pioneering approach not only ensured cost savings but also guaranteed the secure delivery of vehicles, marking a significant milestone in car transport efficiency. The Vert-A-Pac stands as a testament to 𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗼𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝗱𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗿𝘆, showcasing how 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗰 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀, 𝗖𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗮𝗯𝗼𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 and out-of-the-box thinking can lead to groundbreaking solutions that revolutionize logistics and drive cost-effectiveness. #Innovation #Transportation #AutomotiveIndustry

Will All Heavy-Duty Trucks Be Electric Soon? I have seen over the last 15 years how much mandates have dramatically changed the technology on commercial trucks. The heavy-duty industry is evolving, and mandates set for 2027 are steering the industry toward reduced NOx emissions and phasing out internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles. Despite the ambitious timeline, successful implementation hinges on industry collaboration, tech innovation, and ongoing support for reliable transport solutions. Would you switch to a BEV or prefer to keep using ICE vehicles? If you haven't already, follow The Heavy Duty Parts Report brought to you by FinditParts, so you never miss out on great conversations that empower heavy-duty people. 🎧 #BatteryElectricVehicles #ICEvehicles #TruckingIndustry #CommercialTrucks #DieselEmissionsSystems

The shift to zero-emission trucks brings opportunities and challenges for the industry in core areas such as powertrain, service, and vehicle digitization. Making it happen will require greater cooperation.
