We’re working on integrating a MiniTruckCanada.com forum to our website.
MiniTruck owners will be able to exchange ideas and help each other out. You can rate your experience with local businesses and offer advice to others that are in need.
It will also give dealers and other businesses an opportunity to help answer any questions you have.
We’ll be sure to let you know when the forum is fully operational.
If you’re not already on our mailing list, please add yourself here.
Right Drive and MiniTruckCanada.com have teamed up and will be promoting MiniTrucks at the Pickering Markets this weekend (Sat July 18 and Sun July 19).

Talk to Yury or Michael, or any other member of the Right Drive team.
