This is possibly a simple question but it is also one that could be somewhat ambiguous? Basically because it does not totally define exactly what it is that you are driving in this part of Chicagoland, let alone what work is required to be performed on it?
What Is A Truck?
The word itself has several very different meanings both as a verb and a noun (you can look it up in Webster’s). Furthermore, even the meaning relating to something that can be driven is not totally clear. Theoretically, today, it usually refers to a motor driven road vehicle used for the transportation of cargo. However, this could be anything from the prime mover, which connects through the so called “5th wheel to a trailer to make up a semi tractor-trailer “big rig” or “18-wheeler, down to a modest pickup that is really only a sedan car with a large open trunk. The later is also popular with individuals who use them as their preferred form of motor car for personal transportation.
Maintaining Such Vehicles
Smaller pickups are mostly built onto a motorcar chassis and use the same common components (engines, transmissions, etc) as the base automobile. Therefore, whether it is collision damage, unexpected mechanical or electrical failure or just routine maintenance, this type of vehicle can be easily dealt with at any regular auto shop.
However, once we get up into the larger sizes, even things like tire changes let alone major truck repair in Bridgeview become more complex and specialized. Some of this is nothing more than heavier duty jacking or lifting equipment but specialized tools and knowledge may also be required depending on the nature of the work to be carried out.
