HDA Truck Pride expands footprint in the San Diego market with the addition of E-W Truck & Equipment Company Inc. to their network.
E-W Truck & Equipment Company Inc is a three-generation family-owned business that has been proudly servicing the San Diego community for 69 years. Their service area encompasses both San Diego and Imperial counties with a primary focus on serving Refuse, Transit, Chassis and Municipal contracts.
The E-W Truck & Equipment Company legacy began in 1954, when Earl and Ruby Winters arrived in San Diego, CA and acquired the sole authorized Cummins Engine Company sales and service facility in the city. A nod to Earl Winters industry moniker, “EW”, the establishment was christened EW Equipment Company and then on July 29, 1965, the incorporation of E-W Equipment Company marked another significant milestone.
In 1974, Stuart Winters, son of Earl and Ruby, assumed the position of CEO, ushering in a new era for E-W Equipment Company where they witnessed a surge in business growth. It was at that point Stuart added the word, “Truck” to the name and the company expanded by adding service bays and expanding the parts department.
Throughout the years, E-W Truck & Equipment Company Inc continued to broaden the range of products and services they offer. These included a deep expansion into parts to support all highway trucks, trailers and work/refuse equipment. Not stopping there, they went next level on their service offerings by adding an 800 HP Dyno in addition to a full Transmission, Differential, Axle and Gear shop where customers can have their units fully rebuilt and tested.
In 2003, as third generation, bringing his experience and deep involvement in various roles throughout the family business, Jeff Winters, son of Stuart and Linda, assumed the role of CEO. Under his leadership, E-W Truck & Equipment Company Inc continues to garner a formidable reputation throughout the San Diego market, offering a full-service shop that stands out in any market.
“HDA Truck Pride is about people and community. The Winters family has dedicated nearly 70 years to the trucking industry and serving the San Diego community,” says Tina Hubbard, President, and CEO of HDA Truck Pride. “We look forward to supporting E-W Truck & Equipment Company as they continue to realize a bright and successful future.”
