MAN trucks are the preferred choice in the towing and recovery sector being a body-builder friendly chassis.  This significantly shortens assembly time and makes it easier for body-builders to make adjustments on the body where needed. Such truck concepts are used in any heavy-duty operations likemilitary or any special vehicles.  As such, MAN’s decades of competence in manufacturing towing and recovery vehicles pay off well for customers. Mr.Mueller added that customers operating in the south will be pleased that MAN Service in Johor Bahru will be operational starting 16th June and MAN plans to open its northern service by year end.

“One of our aims is to give better after-sales service and these centers will greatly ease those operating MAN buses and trucks in the south and north for service and maintenance,” he concluded.
