Chariot Manufacturing Sells 'Specialty' Trailer

BARTOW, Fla., Sept. 3 -- American Commerce Solutions, Inc. (BULLETIN BOARD: AACS) today announced that its subsidiary, Chariot Manufacturing Company, Inc., has sold the first Chariot trailer specifically designed for the landscape industry.

Steven D. Smith, President of Chariot, stated, "We are pleased to announce that we have now completed development and have received a deposit to build a landscaping/lawn maintenance trailer that will provide specific features to fit their particular needs. We felt this was an opportunity for us to bring a premium product to the landscape industry that will not only meet their specific needs, but also be much lighter than competitors. The unit will have secured compartments that keep their tools safe and organized, special holders for irrigation parts and pipes and will have fiber glassed floors which allow cleanup inside the trailer without fear of wood rot. Additionally, since there are no obstructing seams or rivets, the trailer sides are perfect for the application of the Contractor's graphics."

Smith continued, "While our first deposit was paid in cash, as will be the balance upon delivery, we can offer Contractor's financing through a third party leasing program. This will enable the Landscape Contractor to package other equipment, or even vehicles under the same lease plan. For business owners in this type of market, price is not as much an issue as cash flow. As long as the lease plan fits their cash flow, the Contractor can have a much more tailored, efficient and useful tool. Sales of our premium trailers has been steadily growing with more complex trailers including air conditioning, electrical packages, windows, cabinets and deluxe interiors. We are working with several customers designing RV packages making the trailer half motorcycle carrier and half RV. Our sales backlog remains strong as are the number of inquiries we receive every day."

Integral to the development of the landscaper's trailer and purchaser of the first unit is Richard Gearin, President and owner of Essential Property Maintenance in Brandon, Florida. Gearin commented, "I have over twenty years in this business and finally I'll have a covered trailer that will be stylish, industry practical and economically lightweight. Working on the design and applications was interesting and enjoyable. These guys know what they're doing and worked hard to meet this customer's needs."

American Commerce Solutions, Inc. President and Chief Executive Officer, Daniel L. Hefner, stated, "Steve and his team continue to do an outstanding job of promoting the Chariot line of lightweight, aerodynamic trailers to both dealers and the private sector through motorcycle rallies and word of mouth. Successfully converting a plan on paper to reality validates Chariot's ability to increase its potential through market focus and diversification. It is virtually impossible to quantify the benefit of this increased market. You see landscape trailers virtually everywhere, now some will be Chariot Trailers."
