Always an innovator, in 1954, Earl Dallas Smith founded Dallas Smith Corp. In 1960, Smith formed a trucking division in Phoenix, Arizona to transport new General Motors vehicles to auto dealers located in Colorado, Nevada, New Mexico, Mexico and Arizona that prospered for 25 years until Ryder acquired the successful trucking business in 1984.

Driven from his earlier successes, Dallas Smith looked to reinvent the transportation industry through innovation and new product development. And with over 20 years of Research & Development, and 25 Patents supporting the exclusive Axleless® Suspension System, Dallas Smith Corporation has continued to set its sights on providing the transportation industry with Safer, Smarter and Easier Trucks & Trailers.

By offering over 30% more cargo area, Dallas Smith Corp. was quickly noticed by the industry’s top trailer manufacturers. And after working with companies like: Ford Motor Company, Roush & BAE Systems, Dallas Smith Corp. has since made low floor an option on the Ford F-Series Super Duty platform. The technology has been opened to a range of front-wheel drive applications such as: buses, book mobiles, emergency response vehicles, cargo trucks, delivery trucks, beverage trucks, utility trucks, and much more.
