Shechem Events has taken delivery of a second Sinotruk Howo M3 Rigid 5200MM from Patison, registered KDZ 341F. Like the rest of the order it arrived in clean factory white with the speed limiter already fitted, but this truck also carries wire guards over its headlamps and fog lamps. It is a simple fitting that stops stones thrown up on murram and gravel roads from cracking the lights – the kind of small detail that keeps a truck earning instead of waiting for repairs.
Read about the other two trucks in this order: Shechem Events moves its own event equipment with a Sinotruk Howo M3 Rigid 5200MM and Shechem Events completes a three-truck order with a Sinotruk Howo M3 Rigid 5200MM.
The Howo M3 Rigid 5200MM is a 4×2 rigid truck with a 5,200 millimetre wheelbase and a 220 horsepower Weichai engine, and its long body has room for loads that are bulky rather than heavy. Buying more than one truck of the same model also keeps things simple: the drivers learn the same controls, the loading routine is the same on every job, and any driver can take any of them out. For a growing business deciding which rigid truck to buy in Kenya, a matching fleet is often worth as much as the specification sheet.
Patison handled the sale, the paperwork and the handover. Trucks bought through Patison can be financed from a 5% deposit through our partner banks, and they come with warranty cover and driver training.
