We have been a successful TCM dealer since 2005. Since the UniCarriers merger in 2012 our relationship with this manufacture has become convoluted to say the least. Their marketing plans are extremely complex and counter productive for the dealers. It seems every 3-4 months a new sales and marketing program is introduced. Just trying to keep up with "Who's on First" is a challenge. Unfortunately it has become apparent that UniCarriers is going out of its way to rid themselves of smaller TCM dealer, whether they are successful or not. Many have been canceled over the past 12-18 months. They are focused on ITA market share and use this measurement to claim breach of contract with their TCM dealers nationwide. We have developed many multi truck end user accounts for TCM over the past ten years that we will ultimately convert to another brand when our divorce with UniCarriers occurs. Unfortunately what many manufacturers fail to realize is that people buy from people. My customers do not care what brand we sell as long as it is reliable and can be supported with quality parts and service. For those current and former TCM dealers that may read this post, remember the prospective customer question "TC...Who" or "Who Makes TCM". Well I am convinced the new name "UniCarriers" will solve this problem. Don't you????
