Tim is our Inside/Outside Salesman who became a part of the Douglass team in November of 2018. He began as a sales assistant and, after building his truck body knowledge base and rapport with our customers, was promptly promoted to our Inside/Outside sales rep. Tim ensures that each and every project he works on is completed to his customers satisfaction and in a timely manner. You will often find him outside taking calls, meeting with customers, or in the shop checking on customer builds. His favorite part of the job is engaging with customers, loving the fact that every customer’s needs are different, which allows him to gain new knowledge about custom builds to help him with future builds. He’s a proud father of 6, who loves to play golf, whether for business or pleasure, and is ready to get your new truck body on the road!;

Doug is our newest sales recruit, coming to us in October of 2019.

Darian came to Douglass in June 2019 as our Sales and Marketing Assistant. She did everything from checking in trucks, to handling their parts and service, all the way to evaluating completed truck builds through our quality control process. She took a hiatus from 2021-2023 to grow and develop herself professionally and has since earned her Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design certification, in addition to her Car Seat Safety Technician certification. As a result, if you have any car seats in your truck, she is certified to ensure it is properly installed and secured before your truck hits the road (if you request an evaluation). She has now returned to Douglass as our Marketing and Production Support Manager in August of 2023. Now she helps train new Douglass team members on administrative and quality control processes, in addition to overseeing production to ensure projects stay on track and clients are happy. For Darian, she believes that building quality relationships is just as important as building quality bodies!

Alex is our Parts and Service Advisor that came to us in November of 2021.

If there’s a part you need or a door/box you need built, he’s your guy! Alex is also bilingual, so whether you speak English or Espanol, he can understand and assist you with all your truck body needs!

Josh is one of our Parts and Service Advisors who joined the team in March 2024.  Using his previous customer service experience at places like Auto Zone, Harbor Freight, and Lowes over the past 4 years, you can find him at the front counter helping customers and answering the phones, or in the shop conversing with the liftgate and hydraulic technicians to facilitate ongoing installations and repairs.  When he's not toasting a bagel in the breakroom, he's using his love for suspension fabrication to assist his growing knowledge of the manufacturing and repair processes for truck bodies here at Douglass.  You can trust that Josh won't be afraid to get his hands dirty with whatever repair or fabrication project you're looking for on your Douglass bed!
