Tiger Truck Is First to Deliver Off-Road Multi-Fuels

DALLAS, Nov. 4, 2005 -- For the first time, single users and large fleet operators of off-road vehicles now have a true multi-fuel choice. Tiger Truck is the first in its class to receive EPA approval for its E85-compliant engine. The US Department of Energy defines E85 as fuel having 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline. It burns cleaner and comes from US agricultural output to reduce our dependency on foreign oil. Tiger Truck gives unprecedented choice to vehicle buyers of being powered by gasoline, E85, all-electric, electric hybrid or E85 hybrid.

"At a time of increasing concern about rising fuel prices and controlling our own resources, it is of primary importance to deliver efficient choices to the users of our vehicles," said Mike Ward, President of Tiger. "We thank our dealer partners for keeping us aware of regional concentrations of interest for certain configurations and give great credit to our own engineering staff for quickly responding with these important multi-fuel capabilities."

"Sure, it costs a little more to have these industry-leading options," according to Mike Felder, EVP-Operations at Tiger, "but we know that our strong trucks are priced competitively, and have more fuel choices and body configuration options than anybody else. Just ask any of our fleet operators!"
