Are there any Hino experts or people who regularly work with similar box trucks?

What are the best places to take one in for work/inspection?

Well for example lots of people don't trust dealerships with their own cars and prefer these smaller shops like how many Subaru owners go to HBL or Kon's.

I'm wondering if anybody knows anything similar but for Hino/box trucks.

I brought my car in once to the dealership they said there was nothing wrong after doing a 100 and whatever point inspection. I brought it to a smaller shop and the guy lifts it up and spots a leak in like 2 minutes.

I always prefer to go somewhere else before a dealership.

Not sure but trucks might be a little different than cars (re: dealership vs independents). My friend has multiple trucks of various makes and models. He took all of them to this independent shop in Delta, he ended up taking his Hino back to Vancouver Hino Trucks and they were able to fix something that the indie shop couldn't. Not too sure of the specifics but I know this because I went with him to pick up his truck.

Toyota, Lexus, Scion, Daihatsu and Hino are all in the same Toyota Group.

What's wrong with dealerships?

I think they're better than any shady shops...the only disadvantage of dealership is price.

I used to take my 5T's to Dawson on Stillcreek. No complaints.

We have 3 Hinos at work, 2 185's and a 195. We go to our local Independent mechanic for regular repairs and maintenance but take it to Vancouver Hino for the big stuff or warranty work.

Yes, this totally answers op's question. Let's take a Hino to a Toyota or Lexus specialists and they'll know exactly what to do with it because Hino is in the same parent company right? You fucking moron.
