Video: CarCaddy Vehicle Puller: Ideal Solution to Maneuver Cars at Auto Repair Facilities

The CarCaddy Vehicle Puller increases efficiency and profitability for auto service centers, vehicle dealerships, and automotive testing facilities. The compact CarCaddy VP7K allows one person to safely maneuver inoperable vehicles from point A to point B.

Cost-Effective

Previously, Lexus of North Miami Collision Repair Center had to rely on tow vehicles, fork trucks or third-party car moving services to relocate inoperable vehicles within their facility. The CarCaddy Vehicle Puller is a much more affordable solution that is ready to use as needed. No waiting necessary.

Easy-to-Use

The CarCaddy VP7K is easy-to-operate. The operator can either stand on the ride-on platform or on the ground while steering. Unlike clumsy fork trucks, it allows for tight turns and easy maneuverability in crowded workshops or factories.

Small Footprint

Tow trucks and fork lifts are large, bulky and take up valuable shop space. The CarCaddy Vehicle Puller is compact and can be stored in convenient locations to charge and use whenever its needed.

Car Sales Trends

While technology has made incredible advancements over the last few years, scientists have still not come up with a reliable way to tell the future. But there are plenty of knowledgeable experts who are willing to weigh in on what they see happening in the auto industry during 2017.

Car Sales Will Remain Healthy

In 2015, an astonishing 17.5 million light vehicles were purchased in the United States, and 2016 numbers are expected to top out at 18 million for an astronomic increase of 73 percent over the last seven years. Experts believe that the growing population will continue to boost sales, which could reach 20 million annually before hitting a natural slowdown.

Intuitive Dashboards Will Continue to Develop

Today’s cars are increasingly integrating touch screen along with voice and gesture control to access features, but don’t expect old-school buttons and knobs to disappear completely just yet.

Avoid Cars with Self-Driving Capabilities

If you truly can’t tear yourself away from your phone or tablet, self-driving features may be the way to go. But if you’re a normally attentive driver, these systems can become more of a distraction than the devices themselves.

Put That Tesla Model 3 Order on Hold
