Premier Truck Rental Showcases Three Innovative Custom-Built Fleet Solutions

Fort Wayne, IN, Aug. 31, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Premier Truck Rental (PTR), a nationwide custom truck, trailer and equipment provider, continues to solve complex fleet challenges through tailored rental solutions designed around customer needs and jobsite demands.

Led by its DRIVE core values, PTR has embraced an "If you can dream it, we can build it" mindset to solving customer challenges. That commitment was evident in the company's flagship Candy Wagon Framer and remains a driving force behind its custom builds today.

Over the last five years, Premier Truck Rental has introduced three custom-built units for specialized utility projects. Each build was a result of close collaboration between customers, sales, operations and PTR’s in-house team of technicians.

From concept to completion, each custom truck provided a unique solution to a customer problem. The custom builds include:

• Candy Wagon Framer Lite
• Open Service Body Framer
• Custom Open Service Body for Utilities

Candy Wagon Framer Lite

Also known as the contractor truck, PTR’s Framer Lite is an evolution of the Candy Wagon Framer, featuring several modifications to support customer needs. Like the original Framer, it offers an 18,500lb maximum towing capacity, a 19,500lb GVWR, 3,200lb payload capacity and an 11-foot bed. While built on the same platform as the Candy Wagon Framer, the Framer Lite features a streamlined configuration tailored to the customer’s application. Key differences include:

• Mid-length overhead rack in place of the full-size overhead rack
• No front bumper
• No hydraulic winch
• No capstan

Open Service Body Framer

Designed specifically for substation work, the Open Service Body Framer balances maneuverability and functionality, giving utility crews the tools and storage needed to operate efficiently in confined work areas. Built from proven Framer components and tailored to a specialized application, the unit offers:

• DP winch for reliable pulling power
• Partial overhead rack for added storage
• Exterior drawers for equipment organization

Custom Open Service Body for Utilities

Originally developed as a specialized solution, the Custom Open Service Body for Utilities demonstrated how custom fleet design can also support scalability. Delivered in a fraction of the time required for a traditional build, the unit features an upgraded body, enhanced lighting system and several crew-focused upfits, including:

• Custom Cooler Storage
• Overhead Ladder Racks
• Multiple Custom Storage Cabinets

These custom builds reflect PTR's commitment to developing solutions around customer needs, no matter how specialized the application. Each unit demonstrates PTR's ability to combine customer vision, cross-functional expertise and in-house craftsmanship to bring innovative fleet solutions to life.
