Dear Gentleman,

Yinzer Corporation would be glad to respond to your RFP service van fleet replacement - OPN#CSR112. We have a unique service vehicle platform that will become a useful company resource that is synonymous with the dependability of your passenger schedules. Our company has taken what it has learned over the past decades in service vehicle fleet and have incorporated it into our newest generation small service platform MiniMight chassis. It is designed to face the elements for decades, and be operated for hundreds of thousands of hours. Constructed of our Yinzer patented Barrasso™ steel, the plating protects well for decades, even way past what you think would be it’s prime. We have multiple models; our base service van is designed for carrying two working adults with 100KG of tools, and hauling +500 KG of parts to a jobsite. These vans are also able to have their tires taken off and operate on the gauge of your tracks as rail service cars. We have an economical and reliable 4 cylinder engine that is a “boxer” design with Electronic Fuel Injection, which give these vans 28MPG on the highway, and a week worth of idling while powering tools with its onboard 100Amp transformer and 5000psi hydraulic pump. The wheels, tires, brake rotors, and pads are all the same size and interchangeable, so your service shelves can carry much less stock.

The vehicle also comes with a very reliable, classic 4x4 drivetrain with coil spring suspension, solid axles, and manual locking differentials, coupled with the newest advanced four speed automatic transmission. It has a “crawl” ratio that comes in very handy for jobs like spraying, sealing, inspecting, etc, and a matching overdrive that is responsible for its highway fuel efficiency. It also has the newest computer controlled anti-lock braking system, which makes the vehicle very safe to drive, even empty on wet roads. If the roads are not roads, and remote service is necessary, the off road skid plates avert disasters. Even though these vans are small, passenger space is adequate, and upscale seating helps when these vehicles are used as remote offices. Speaking of remote, six of these can be loaded onto a single railcar and transported, or stored indefinitely; they come with rugged hooks for pulling or used as tie downs.

I am including pictures of the base model, our pickup, and our 5 person utility. The service life is a planned 35 years on this chassis. I am shipping one of our standard, two person utility cargo models in frost white to your main office to pass around for reviews.

Thank you for your time
Donnie Iris,
Manager, Fleet Sales

Great theme, by the way. Lots of available inspiration and some interesting choices to be made.

I mentioned it in the DM but I would not be able to host the next round.

EDIT: Hmm, just noticed that at some point my taillights got flipped horizontally. Doesn’t make too much difference but I should have double checked…

Carry all you can catch
This is what CAYCC means
by Alfora

Using a 3.0 I4 engine, and weighting 1500kg, it can carry about 3500kg, in its 5000L cargo capacity. Living in CAYCC prolly should be safier than a house, you’ll never suffer from tsunamis or any other things, and will prolly live much more than you too.
