Keep Your Light Commercial Vehicle Running with MOOG® Parts

Do You Drive a Light Commercial Vehicle?

When you think about a light commercial vehicle, delivery vans and police cars likely come to mind. However, in today’s gig economy, you may be driving a light commercial vehicle and not even realize it. If you drive for a ride share company or make food or package deliveries for a restaurant delivery service or online store, your vehicle can be classified as a light commercial vehicle.

It’s not the type of vehicle that makes a car, truck, SUV or van a light commercial vehicle; rather it’s how the vehicle is being used. Using your personal vehicle like a taxi or as a delivery van is hard on your car. All the stops and starts you make while making deliveries or driving people around town add extra wear and tear on your vehicle, and the extra miles can necessitate more frequent maintenance. How you drive your vehicle can make it more like a UPS van than a family car.
