- You must use a vehicle appropriate for your business with our branded logo/wrap. We strongly recommend a midsize pickup truck, white in color, such as a Toyota Tundra or Nissan Frontier. It must be in excellent or better condition, clean, dent-free, and otherwise presenting a professional appearance. The low-end estimate assumes you already have a personal vehicle for the business. The high assumes you lease a new vehicle, with certain fees and costs payable upon signing the lease.

What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Bombs Away's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, the vehicle you use for your franchise must be in excellent condition or better. Bombs Away strongly recommends a white, midsize pickup truck, such as a Toyota Tundra or Nissan Frontier. The vehicle must be clean, dent-free, and present a professional appearance.
This requirement ensures that all Bombs Away franchisees maintain a consistent brand image. A well-maintained and professional-looking vehicle contributes to customer perception and trust. The FDD estimates the vehicle costs between $0 and $30,000, with the low end assuming you already own a suitable vehicle. The high end accounts for leasing a new vehicle, including associated fees.
For a prospective Bombs Away franchisee, this means carefully assessing your current vehicle or budgeting for a new or leased vehicle that meets these standards. Failing to meet the vehicle standards could delay your franchise launch or require unexpected expenses. It is important to factor in the ongoing maintenance costs to keep the vehicle in acceptable condition.
