The T520s with sleeper cab move heavy plant machinery, including excavators, bulldozers and dump trucks across the UK.<br \/>\nRob Jones, Director of Ridgway Rentals explains why they opted for the Renault Trucks: \u201cWith an increased demand for our services, we are extremely busy. The new vehicles have been brought in to replace older stock and to ensure that we have the very best fleet to meet our customer\u2019s needs. We also have our local Renault Trucks dealer, Perrys of Gobowen, on our doorstep so that repair and maintenance is stress-free.\u201d<br \/>\nThe T520s are fitted with the ATO 2612F gearbox, reinforced for heavy duty use (XTREM), with automatic clutch. Optional extras specified include Alcoa brushed matt aluminium wheels, 4-point cab air suspension with ride-height control system, roof mounted twin air horns, comfort air conditioning, fridge, one-touch electric windows, leather steering wheel and ROADPAD+.<br \/>\n\u201cWe find Renault Trucks has a well-deserved reputation for reliability and our drivers are big fans. The trucks are out on the road four nights a week and they say driving the T520s is an absolute pleasure; the cab is more comfortable and the bed is better.\u201d Says Rob Jones.<br \/>\nRob continues: \u201cThe trucks are also becoming local celebrities! Winning \u201cBest Shropshire Truck\u201d at The Whitchurch Truck show and they are regularly photographed on the move and posted by truck spotters on social media. Seeing the vehicles looking so impressive and celebrated by others is the icing on the cake!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ridgwayrentals.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.ridgwayrentals.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p><span>Follow us: <\/span><span><a href=\"https:\/\/renault-trucks-uk.com\/8FM-82101-B9HVQO-4XZLFG-1\/c.aspx\">www.renault-trucks.co.u<b>k<\/b><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nationwide plant hire company, Ridgway Rentals Ltd, has taken delivery of two new 70-tonne Renault Trucks T520 6&#215;2 tag axle <\/p>\n<a class=\"btn-sub-green l-blog-post-readmore\" href=\"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/2022\/10\/ridgway-rentals-adds-head-turning-70-tonne-renault-trucks-to-fleet\/\" title=\"Read more\">Read more<\/a>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":4576,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-4575","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-plant-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4575","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=4575"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4575\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4577,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/4575\/revisions\/4577"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/4576"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=4575"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=4575"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.constructionplantworld.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=4575"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
