𝗜𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂'𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝘀𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗗𝗔𝗦 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗱𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗲𝘁, 𝘆𝗼𝘂'𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝘄𝗶𝗰𝗲.

Once in sublet fees. Once in the bay time, the tech time, and the customer relationship you don't fully own anymore.

Almost every new vehicle on the road has ADAS. And almost every one of them needs recalibration after an alignment, a windshield replacement, or any collision work. That work is in your shop already. The question is whether the revenue stays there.

Hunter Engineering's Ultimate ADAS solves it: 𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗔𝗗𝗔𝗦 𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗯𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗯𝗮𝘆, 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗲 𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗶𝗽𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁. Laser-guided target placement. OEM-specific coverage. HunterNet 2 connectivity so you can actually see what the bay is producing.

What it means in practice:

- 𝟲𝟬-𝟭𝟮𝟱 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝘀𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝗽𝗲𝗿 𝘃𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗹𝗲
- OEM-specific calibration targets across millions of vehicles
- No second ADAS-only bay required
- Installation and training included

𝗧𝗼𝘁𝗮𝗹 𝗧𝗼𝗼𝗹 𝗶𝘀 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗮𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗱 𝗛𝘂𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗱𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗲𝗿 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗡𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗮𝘀𝘁. 40+ years selling and servicing this equipment across upstate New York, Vermont, Western Mass, and Connecticut. We handle the install, the training, and the support.

If your shop is doing alignments and not yet capturing ADAS, take a look:
