As in Ferris Bueller? Never heard of them. Can tell you not to waste your time with Penske. They have a national account program with Safelite for repair and replacement.

The MORE reason to BOTHER them all day long.

I've done work for Penske, Husky, Ruan, Ryder and over a dozen regional and local truck leasing companies for over twenty years. Safelite is generally the preferred replacement provider, but not always. I've never found them to be serious competition for repair. Of course, I ignore the ROLAGS specifications and charge wholesale rather than retail prices. And I work weekends and before/after normal business hours (when trucks are normally available for service). And if you can't get your foot in the door with either the rental or service departments, there's nothing from stopping you from approaching one of their lease accounts directly. Get a bunch of those through the back door, establish a relationship and then approach the service and leasing departments again. People tend to buy on the approval of others.
