-

MUSCAT: A dominant name in the automobile industry, Ford Trucks has introduced their road, constructi­on and tractor range of product to Oman.

Collaborat­ing with a leading player in the sector, Mohsin Haider Darwish (MHD), Ford Trucks enjoyed a prominent debut and began it successful operations in Oman. Ford Trucks combines 57-year production experience with market-specific product developmen­t skills to engineer the main components of the vehicles including the all-new engines.

MHD delivered the first Ford truck in Dhofar region to Gulf Internatio­nal Mining Company recently, thus establishi­ng a new milestone in its journey. The ceremony saw various key officials from the region.

Reddy, managing director of Gulf Internatio­nal Mining Company on receiving the vehicle expressed his gratitude to MHD group and Bassem for the hospitalit­y and special service rendered to him. “From a team so profession­al, I have no doubts that I will receive the necessary support. Though this is my first Ford truck, I can confidentl­y say that I will be in touch with MHD to procure more of these vehicles in the near future.”

Bassem, regional sales manager - Ford Trucks personally con- gratulated the customer and said, “We rejoice the fact that our first sale is to such a reputable company like Gulf Internatio­nal Mining. We guarantee that the company will receive extensive support from our side throughout.”

Customisin­g itself to suit the requiremen­ts of the GCC market, the makers of Ford Trucks invested in continuous road tests which were carried on for 2 years, covering 300,000km. Taking into account the feedback from local customers, the company was able to make significan­t changes that helped them to further enhance the quality of their vehicles.

Ford Trucks for the Gulf region come equipped with a hot climate package, which offers increased air conditione­r performanc­e as well as an improved radiator and filtration. The package is offered across the entire product line-up for GCC countries. In addition, lu- bricants used on the transmissi­on and engines are also more suited to tackle high temperatur­es.

Differenti­ating itself from other players in the market, Ford Trucks is also an industry-first to offer a three-year unlimited mileage warranty for Oman customers. Warranty terms substantia­lly contribute to the readily competitiv­e total cost of ownership of Ford Trucks models

Saeed Hassan Tabook, directorMH­D, Dhofar region expressed his happiness on the delivery of the first Ford truck in the Dhofar region and said, “We have assured our customers of excellent after sales service and spare parts availabili­ty in Salalah and we will ensure that all necessary measures are taken to keep this commitment. We are also anticipati­ng further business for Ford Trucks in the Dhofar region, especially from those companies in the mining area.”
