Commercial Vehicle Program Stip examples and explanation:

Most important thing to look at – Has it been signed off on/check off that it qualifies?

Important to note: these reports may vary between dealerships, but they all look at the same general attributes.

Proof of Usage – (ONLY required for Heavy Duty vehicles):

Most important thing to look at – Does it have an official company branding/letterhead?

Examples: Haul letter, Reference Letter or Company’s Letter stating what the truck will be used for.

RigDig report – (ONLY required for Heavy Duty vehicles):

Most important thing to look at – Page 2 of the RigDig report has a “Vital History” section. If each of the three subsections begin with “Great News!”, the truck is clean.

Engine Plate – (ONLY required in CA for Medium and Heavy Duty vehicles):

Most important thing to look at – Check date in red. If the year is more recent than the year in the Engine and Model Year restriction by Truck class listed above, then it is good!

Picture of Engine Hours – (ONLY required for Heavy Duty vehicles):

Most important thing to look at – Use this formula

Hours of use (on left) ≤ Miles (on right) x 0.03 – If this is not true, lender fee will be added.
