From the Desk:

The striping season for some in the U.S. is starting to wind down as the seasons change. I hope everyone has had a SAFE season out on the roads!

2025 is right around the corner and with that, will bring new opportunities for many. Now is the time to consider your equipment replacement or refurbishment schedules. If you are looking for a new truck for 2025 and want it in the first quarter, now is the time to start placing orders. We will soon fill up on build spots for January through March. Now is also a good time to place your order before a price increase takes place.

As I have discussed previously, chassis are becoming more of a challenge in several States. In 2025, CA, OR, MA, NY, NJ, and WA will all have more restrictions on what chassis can be sold in those States. Secure your chassis now! Isuzu has sent out an official notification to its dealers that they will no longer be able to sell the N-Series diesel trucks in CA, OR, and MA.

I am excited to announce that MRL has agreed for Trysil RMM to be a dealer in Europe for our Mini Mac 400 and Mini Grinder product line. We look forward to a growing relationship and presence in Europe with these great products.

I want to thank all our existing customers for continuing to trust MRL with their striping and grinding equipment needs! We truly feel honored to be your supplier of choice. We continue to strive to improve operations and service capabilities. We will soon be bringing online a new service ticket system to help improve our service capabilities.

I hope everyone has a great end to their 2024 season and MRL looks forward to helping you with your equipment needs.

Sincerely,

Boyd Montgomery
