Now in its 14th year, the program aims to help collision repairers deliver quality, cost-effective repairs to their customers.
By offering Ford and Lincoln Mercury wholesaling dealers—the exclusive distributors of genuine Ford replacement collision parts—competitive prices on bulk purchases of high-volume collision parts, the Truckload Program allows them to compete more effectively against non-OEM copy parts and other parts specified by insurance customers. This allows for a win-win-win situation for insurance companies, body shops and the consumer, Ford said.
“The Truckload Program provides collision shops the ability to provide high-quality repairs to their customers, at affordable prices. Insurance companies, and in turn, the consumer, can benefit from the savings the program provides. Vehicle owners want to know that they’re getting the best repair they can, at the best price available, and the program helps both repairers and insurers provide that,” remarked George Gilbert, Truckload Program manager for FCSD.
Along with the fascias, nine wheels, one car radiator, two grills/GORs/GOPs, eight headlamps, two tail lamps, four fog lamps, four mirrors and one isolator have been added to the program, all with significant average list price reductions.
The program continues to grow and currently includes more than 430 high-volume collision parts covering more than a dozen part types, including bumper fascias, steel bumpers, bumper bars, exterior lighting, mirrors, grilles, car and truck radiators, wheels, header panels/GORs/GOPs, isolators/impact pads/shafts, valances, and radiator condenser modules.
