Connerton was planned with jobs written into it. Under a state incentive program, the community’s housing count is tied to employment: when it reaches 2,000 homes, 500 jobs must be documented within a 1-mile radius. Plans from 2017 also called for 1.4 million square feet of office and industrial space at buildout. If your company is one of the employers in and around Connerton and runs trucks, vans or buses, RDI Fleet is how RDI Power keeps that fleet on schedule.
A small Connerton fleet without its own shop
A business with 3 pickups and a box truck does not need a maintenance department. It needs someone who knows each unit, keeps the schedule and tells the truth about what is worn. RDI Fleet is RDI Power’s fleet program, run from the same Brooksville shop with the same technicians, and it scales from a handful of units to a large mixed fleet of light, medium and heavy duty trucks, trailers and buses. Fleet accounts get priority in the shop when something breaks, so a unit down unexpectedly does not wait behind the general schedule.
Starting a Connerton fleet plan
- Walk the yard. We inventory each unit by VIN, engine, mileage or hours and condition, and flag the ones with open problems first.
- Learn the work. A truck that idles on job sites runs on a different clock than one that covers US-41 every day, so some units get hour-based intervals and others mileage-based.
- Set the budget. You get a straight read on what has to happen now, what can wait for next quarter and what to keep an eye on.
- Book the calendar. PM visits and annual DOT inspection dates go on a schedule built around your slow days, staggered so the whole fleet is never due at once.
Yard and job-site PM for Connerton trucks
Our shop is about 24 road miles away, so routine work comes to you. Mobile technicians handle oil and filter service, fuel filters and water separators, brake measurements, tire checks, chassis lube, code scans and many repairs at the yard or job site. Heavier jobs, such as engine and transmission work, come to Brooksville, and the date is set with you so the unit is out when it costs the least. The mobile diesel repair in Connerton page covers how on-site work runs.
Pickups, trailers and buses on 1 Connerton plan
Few small fleets are uniform. A Connerton yard might hold 2 Super Duty pickups, a box truck, an equipment trailer and a shuttle bus, and each needs different attention. Pickups usually run on mileage or the oil life monitor, shortened for towing and idle time. Trailers get brakes, bearings, lights and tires checked when their truck comes in. Buses get extra care on brakes, doors, suspension and electrical load, and our bus service and repair page covers that side in detail.
Records, warranty and roadside for Connerton fleet accounts
Every visit ends with a digital vehicle inspection: photos and notes for each unit, sorted into what needs attention now and what can be planned. Over a year those reports turn into a service history you can hand to a manager, a driver or an auditor, and they make the next budget easier to write. Fleet repairs carry the RDI Fleet warranty of 2 years or 24,000 miles, and fleet customers have roadside assistance at any hour, including after the Brooksville shop closes at 4:00 PM.
