Hda Truck PrideEast Texas Truck Center has joined HDA Truck Pride. With locations in Baytown and Nacogdoches, Texas, East Texas Truck Center offers truck repairs, maintenance, parts, used trucks and new trailers in the greater eastern Texas area.

Owned by Josh Burch, U.S. Marine Corps veteran, and business partner Forrest Hodges, East Texas Truck Center has grown exponentially year-over-year, according to an announcement.

The East Texas Truck Center team consists of certified mechanics who provide quality work and positive customer interactions. The friendly and experienced staff provide the confidence and trust one comes to expect from a locally owned business. Customer support, dependability and innovation is their creed, according to the company.

“Parts and service are the key,” says Burch. “True, we found a void in the Baytown/Beaumont area with the opportunity to enhance the transportation support infrastructure and provide parts and service. So, we opened right on the I-10 corridor. But the key to this marketplace is to provide a combination of parts and utilize our eight-bay service shop to be sure we are covering the needs of all of our customers. This partnership with HDA Truck Pride is a perfect fit for us as we continue to grow and respond to the increasing demands of our customers.”

Tom Tecklenburg, HDA Truck Pride chief commercial officer, says, “We’re excited to have East Texas Truck Center on the HDA Truck Pride team. We encourage our members to embrace the installation and service aspect of the industry, so the addition of East Texas Truck Center is an ideal match for both businesses. Josh and Forrest have built an exceptional business with strong, professional talent. We anticipate great things and look forward to their continued growth.”
