Parsons Nationwide Distribution in Exeter has added its first Renault Trucks T High to its fleet after an “enthusiastic recommendation” from a local business.

The 6x2 pusher tractor unit was purchased from Sparks Commercial Services and joins the haulier’s 59-strong mixed fleet on bulk tipper work across the UK.

Dale Worsley, Parsons’s transport manager, said: “We’ve had Renault Trucks on the fleet before, but this is the first T High and it’s ideally suited to the work that we do.

“We had an enthusiastic recommendation from another local haulier and the vehicle’s reputation, together with the competitive deal on the table, reinforced our decision to go with Sparks and the T High.”

He added: “Keeping our driver happy was a major consideration in choosing the new vehicle and the spacious cab and optional extras we’ve specified ensure the driver has everything he needs to be comfortable out on the road.

“The truck’s high specification and spacious living area outshone everything, and we are delighted to add this new vehicle to our fleet.”
