"When the assist feature is turned on, pulling the hoist lever past a detent will bring the truck to a stop, apply the wait brake, set the engine to high rpm and raise the bed or activate the ejector automatically. This speeds up the dumping process and reduces cycle times while also lowering operator fatigue." Better dumping is not just about faster dumping, says Thomas.

Features incorporated in larger E Series trucks have been brought to the two smallest models, the 260E (shown) and 310E. The list includes updated styling as well as new cabs, frames and axles compared to the D Series trucks. A newly designed stay-tight oscillation joint, standard adaptive front suspension and bal- anced weight distribution also provide the agility and ability to navigate hostile terrain.
