CM Truck Beds Introduced New Hotshot Trucking Body CM Truck Beds added another innovation to its lineup with the debut of the specialized Hotshot model . This single-piece steel truck body is designed for ultimate strength and durability , with the industry ’ s best hauling capacity and an array of standard features that deliver convenience , safety and ease for hotshot truck drivers .
“ For hotshotters looking to beat the clock with a highly efficient and powerful rig , CM ’ s new Hotshot is the answer ,” said CM Vice President Joe Lewis . “ It ’ s not only built tough and built smart , it also complements any truck with its sleek , head-turning appearance and precision-engineered fit .
One of the Hotshot ’ s standout features is its hauling capacity : The bed is rated for a whopping 30,000 pounds in both the gooseneck and 5th-wheel configurations , thanks to an exclusive partnership with CURT trailer hitches . For drivers with a lot of ground to cover and heavy loads in tow , the Hotshot ’ s capabilities are unsurpassed .
It also comes loaded with premium standard features not commonly found on a hotshot model — including integrated LED lighting backed by a lifetime warranty ; CM ’ s single-piece tubular steel headache rack , ensuring safety and durability ; and two integrated toolboxes with T-handle compression latches and automotive weatherstripping , providing a secure place to stash tools and necessities . Plus , CM ’ s unique Fuel Deck feature supports fuel tanks up to 18 ” deep , eliminating extra stops at the pump and saving drivers valuable time .
“ Hotshot trucking is a growing profession , with more and more people starting their own delivery services ,” said Lewis . “ Many of our competitors are using kits , but real hotshotters don ’ t want a kit — they want the real thing ! This solution is not only great for the customer , but easier for our distributors to install .”
Trusted by professionals as the premier source for high-quality truck beds and service bodies that go the distance , CM Truck Beds offers superior product availability and the fastest lead times on the market . “ The Hotshot model is the latest example of our commitment to building top-quality , work-ready products that meet the specific demands of our customers ,” said Lewis . “ Hotshot drivers now have a safe solution for their hauling needs .”
CM ’ s new Hotshot isn ’ t limited to only truck bed distributors , however . For trailer dealers looking to help customers transport within DOT regulations , the Hotshot body has a major advantage as it allows customers to register their truck as a tractor , thereby increasing load lengths .
“ When trailer dealers are selling dual tandem gooseneck trailers in excess of 35 feet , our new CM Hotshot body helps their customers transport legally within commercial length regulations .” said Lewis . “ This solution is great for trailer dealers who sell into the hotshot market as they can capitalize with a profitable add-on-both on the sale of the body and also in their service facilities .”
