Four Basic Reasons to Choose Idealease

1.  WE ARE THE EXPERTS

 Today’s “traditional” leasing companies are, in essence, third party providers.  They purchase vehicles from truck dealerships and manufacturers and lease them to their customers. 

 These leasing companies usually employ moderately skilled mechanics that specialize in preventive maintenance.  Because Idealease is owned and operated by North America’s International Dealers, we have more experienced mechanics and state of the art equipment at our disposal.  For example, our leasing competitors are often forced to utilize International dealership repair shops for advanced repair work. International Dealerships perform the majority of major repair and warranty work on International equipment.  Therefore, our leasing competitors are some of our dealerships’ largest repair customers! That should tell you something.

 Our expertise in the diagnosis and repair of International vehicles allows our customers to rest assured that their trucks are receiving the highest level of maintenance in the industry.  Our competitors realize our capabilities.  So why do they have warranty work and major repairs done at our locations?  The reason is simple: We are the maintenance experts.

  2. EXPERIENCED, STABLE  MANAGEMENT

 These “Traditional” leasing companies are often corporate bureaucracies.  The local managers who efficiently service their customers are rewarded by promotions and transfers to larger facilities.  That is good news for the average leasing manager, but not such good news for the customer.  The result is consistent turnover in local management.

 On the other hand, Idealease facilities are self-sufficient leasing operations.  Our local leasing managers have served at their respective facilities for an average of 8 years.  Because there is no corporate ladder to climb, our customers benefit from long-term, stable management. 

  3. WE SERVE OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY

 Our competitors are usually made up of hundreds of branch locations that are managed by a central corporate office.  When customers pay lease bills, their money is collected by the local branches and then forwarded to the corporate office.  Idealease’s structure ensures that your local Idealease facility benefits directly from servicing your vehicles. 

 In other words, revenue collected by our local facilities remains in their local communities.  It’s no wonder that our locations have been integral parts of their communities for up to 80 years.  This is one of the reasons why Idealease is the fastest growing leasing company in North America.  Think of your hometown or neighborhood.  Do you get better service from a local supplier who has been part of your community for a long time, or from the corporate managed supplier who has installed a branch location in your town?  Perhaps this is the reason that Idealease retains over 96% of its’ customer base.

4. PARTS AVAILABILITY + SERVICE AVAILABILITY = LESS DOWNTIME

There is simply no way for our competitors to get trucks back on the road as quickly as Idealease.  Since most of our Idealease locations are located on the same property as the International Dealership, we have access to a great deal more parts and service than our competitors.  In fact, the average “traditional” leasing company has about $60,000 in parts inventory on-site.  When a part is needed that is not in stock, our competitors must wait while it is ordered and delivered from a truck dealership. 

The average Idealease location has in excess of $1,000,000 in parts inventory on site.  The bottom line is this: if we don’t have the part in stock, chances are that no one in town has the part in stock.  Of course, that is an advantage that comes with being in the service industry.
