Wabash Truck Bodies
Power Your Final Mile with Supreme Durability Under One Trusted Roof!
River-Roads Proudly Stocks Wabash Truck Bodies: The Evolution of Supreme Excellence for Your Fleet! At River-Roads Sales & Leasing, we’re your one-stop dealer for the full Wabash lineup – from innovative trailers and parts to now the powerhouse truck bodies formerly known as Supreme. Back in 2017, Wabash National acquired Supreme Industries for $364 million, blending Supreme’s legendary medium- and light-duty expertise with Wabash’s cutting-edge composite tech.
Today, these are marketed seamlessly under the Wabash name, delivering nimble, lightweight solutions for first-to-final-mile hauls that slash costs and supercharge productivity. Whether you’re in dry freight, cold chain, or construction, Wabash truck bodies outpace competitors like Morgan, Reading, or Hercules with superior thermal efficiency, reduced weight, and unmatched longevity – all while integrating perfectly with Wabash trailers for seamless fleet ops.
Here’s why they’re your revenue accelerator:
Wabash Dry Freight Truck Bodies: Tough, Lightweight Haulers for Everyday Demands
DuraPlate Cell Core Innovation: Featuring patented composite panels up to 300 lbs. lighter than traditional builds (and 5x more puncture-resistant), these bodies (available in 10-28 ft. lengths, 96-102 in. widths) maximize payload without sacrificing strength – haul 15-20% more cargo per trip compared to heavier steel options from Morgan or Iron Bull.
Bonded logistics seams on 16- or 24-in. centers ensure smooth interiors that resist damage and dents.
Durability & Low Maintenance: Rear underride guards meet U.S./Canadian standards, while semi-trailer-grade components cut repair needs by 25-30% over competitors’ riveted designs – no more leaks or flex from Reading’s standard models. Eco-friendly manufacturing reduces your carbon footprint, appealing to green fleets.
Utility & Revenue Boost: Ideal for appliance delivery, LTL, or municipal routes, these bodies enable faster loading/unloading and fewer trips for the same volume – fleets report 10-15% fuel savings and $3K+ monthly gains from higher payloads and less downtime. Pair with Wabash vans for a unified fleet that boosts resale value by 20%!
Wabash Refrigerated Truck Bodies (Cold Chain Series): Efficiency Meets Cold Reliability
EcoNex & MSC Technology: Molded Structural Composite (MSC) panels deliver 25% better thermal efficiency and 15% weight reduction (up to 700 lbs. lighter) than aluminum-sided rivals like Thermo King or Carrier units – perfect for multi-temp hauls in the Kold Krew lineup, now rivet-free for zero leaks.
Acutherm models optimize TRU performance, cutting energy use by 20-30%.
Abrasion-Resistant & Customizable: Encapsulated foam insulation outlasts traditional wood/steel by 2-3x, with smooth exteriors that handle urban impacts better than Hercules’ bulkier builds. Options like honeycomb panels add versatility for pharma or food-grade needs, all backed by Wabash’s Ready-to-Mount program for 80% faster delivery.
Utility & Revenue Boost: For cold chain pros, these bodies mean fewer reefer failures and extended product life – translate to 15-25% lower operating costs and quicker ROI in e-commerce surges. Customers like MSC fleets see up to 25% efficiency gains, turning perishable hauls into profit drivers with Wabash trailer compatibility!
Why Wabash Over the Competition? While Morgan leads in volume, it can’t match Wabash’s composite edge for weight and efficiency; Reading excels in service bodies but lags in thermal tech; Hercules is rugged for dumps but heavier and less customizable.
Wabash/Supreme delivers the best of both worlds: proven durability since 1974, now supercharged with trailer-synced innovation for fleets craving less downtime and more margins.
