Hino Trucks (Novi, MI) today announced that it has partnered with the popular television series, Trick My Truck (TMT). This season, not only will Hino be a featured partner in the weekly national show, but the TMT team will once again trick out a Hino Model 338 with a Western Hauler body ultimately being utilized as a Toyota Racing Division (TRD) race car hauler.
TMT is the premier custom truck “makeover” show for completely customizing trucks into virtual works of art on wheels. The show features a team of mechanics, audio/video installers, fabricators and custom painters who transform old trucks into completely new vehicles by “stealing” trucks from hard-working owner-operators profiled on the show.
Glenn Ellis, vice president of Hino Trucks marketing, said, “Through our partnership with Outcast Kustoms, we have been able to showcase the versatility of our truck and reach a broader spectrum of customers. The Trick My Truck team has created an unprecedented following within the trucking industry and among the general public. It is a natural fit for Hino to be aligned with a group of talented individuals that bring a rejuvenated excitement to the industry as custom truck innovators.”
Trick My Truck airs Saturdays at 9:30 p.m. ET on CMT.
Hino Trucks, a Toyota Group Company, sells and services Class 4-7 commercial trucks and is the recipient of the 2008 J.D. Power and Associates awards for Highest in Customer Satisfaction for Medium Duty Trucks and Medium-Duty Truck Engine and Transmission. For more information, visit www.hino.com.
