Model 1 Upfitting

The 1 partner that can end your pain and give you control of your commercial upfits

Let’s face it, the commercial supply chain for upfitted vehicles is a mess. Someone has to fix that, and Model 1 is going first. We’re the one partner you can turn to for the kind of speed, control, and visibility you’ve been waiting for. With your upfit in our hands, you can focus on optimizing your fleet, not tracking it down.

OEM buying power and speed

40+ years of relationships with OEMs gives us the buying and ordering power to bypass supply chain delays. Ordering through Model 1 can cut your wait time in half.

Complete control from order to delivery

Our equalized freight program allows us to take charge of the whole process for you, including getting the vehicles from the OEM, upfitting them to your specifications and brand standards, and either releasing or delivering them where and when you want them.

We take on the risk for you

Your vehicles are safe, secure, and insured while in our possession. Plus, we take on any floor plan expenses that occur in the upfit, and you only pay when you receive the final vehicles.

Nearby, no matter where you are

Model 1 has 23 locations across the U.S., with 3 production centers and 6 regional upfitting centers. That means there’s a Model 1 upfitter near you, not just across the country.

Choose how you buy

You choose how to work with us

We plug into your process, not the other way around. So you can choose to go through Model 1 to source and upfit your vehicles, or you can go through an OEM or commercial truck dealer to buy your vehicles and then pass them over to Model 1. Once your vehicles are in our hands, we take complete control until we deliver or release them to you.
