Keep Your Business Moving Forward With Personalized Fleet Services
By Bill DeBoer on Mar 24, 2020 11:35:05 AM
At DeBoer’s Auto, we believe all vehicles can go 250,000 miles without any issues. However, this requires regular and timely repairs and maintenance to be achieved. By doing so, you could realistically save upwards of $100,000 when you factor in the cost of paying for expensive repairs due to ignoring warning signs or even buying new vehicles every couple of years. This isn’t very time efficient nor cost-effective for fleet owners, so we offer personalized fleet services to help you keep your vehicles on a regular schedule for maintenance and repairs to ensure your business is moving forward.
