Mickey Truck Bodies has partnered with Rush Enterprises as its authorized reconditioning and service center partner for customers in Arizona, California, Nevada, and Utah. The Mickey customers will be serviced from Rush's service and reconditioning centers at its truck centers in Fontana CA and Phoenix AZ.

The two Rush Truck centers will stock a complete line of Mickey parts as well as parts for other major makes and models of bodies and trailers.

Rush Enterprises operates the largest network of Peterbilt heavy-duty truck dealerships in North America. Its current operations include a network of 44 Rush Truck Centers in Texas, California, Oklahoma, Colorado, Arizona, New Mexico, Alabama, Florida, and Tennessee. The company has developed its truck dealerships as “one-stop centers” where customers can purchase new or used equipment, insurance products, aftermarket parts, and accessories, and have service performed by certified technicians.

Rush technicians and supervisors from the Rush Truck Centers in Fontana and Phoenix recently spent a week at Mickey's reconditioning and service center in Thomasville NC and the company's main manufacturing plant in High Point for a training program hosted by Mickey engineers and production supervisors.

The two Rush Truck Centers house 20 to 25 service bays and 80-foot split cabin paint booths. Each facility has a staff of more than 100 professionals for the dealer and reconditioning businesses combined, with 15 to 20 associates dedicated to the reconditioning business at each location.
