City Fleet Sitrak Adds to Coastal Tipper’s Fleet

The growing reputation of City Fleet Sitrak trucks has led to another sale to the fleet business, with two tippers now with Gold Coast-based Coastal Tipper Hire.

After successful testing of the City Fleet Sitrak over the past 6 months, City Fleet has supplied Coastal Tipper with two additional TG5 8x4 tipper trucks that now join the business fleet that is made up predominantly of Japanese brands.

Coastal Tipper chose the Sitrak TG5s because they carry more weight — up to 400kg — than the Japanese brands and have more power and better fuel economy.The family-owned professional earthmoving business, headed by Ross Cook, has been operating since 1981 in the Gold Coast with customers through to Brisbane Southside, Ipswich and as far north as North Lakes and as far south as Pottsville and surrounding areas in northern NSW.

It specialises in the hire of trucks, bobcats and excavators, and in the carting of building materials.

It has about 80 trucks in its fleet, including tippers from 6m to 10m.

The company said that it trades its vehicles every three years to ensure the fleet remains up to date and that it maintains the business’ high standards.

City Fleet CEO Wade Moran said there was synergies with his company and Coastal Tipper which made the Sitrak a great fit.His company has been selling City Fleet Sitrak for 12 months and the brand is now the fifth biggest selling chassis in Australia, seen in variety of industries and businesses, including one customer that has 150 trucks.

City Fleet has now sold more than 400 Sitrak trucks in Australia and has trucks on trial with major transport companies.The City Fleet Sitrak TG5 8X4 is fitted with a durable 6.87-litre engine rated at 330hp/1250Nm and mated to a high-torque Allison’s 3200P transmission.
