Let’s say that you live in the Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex. You’re into trucks. Therefore, you almost certainly know about Joes Hitch, Trailer and Truck Accessories, one of the Big D’s biggest purveyors of such goodies.

Word comes to us now that Joes, spelled without the apostrophe, has acquired A Lifetime Auto Collision, Quest Rent A Car and AllStar Towing. The conglomerate’s motto is Hitch It! Tow It! Repair It! Rent It! Joes has been selling hitches and a lot more since 1932, thereby providing a historic foundation for this one-stop shopping strategy.
