Why do you drive a truck? Whether it’s to haul parts, tow a classic car, or just because no woman ever said, “I’d like to take a ride in your Prius,” we get it. Pickup trucks are as American as apple pie, and they’re a part of life here in Pomona. If you need parts for your truck, or if you’re looking for upgrades, look no further than Perea Truck Accessories & Body Parts. A Pomona regular for nearly ten years, you can find Perea Truck on Road 28, Spaces 16-18-20<\/strong><\/a>, at every show. We recently caught up with company founder, Jaime Perea, to find out a little bit more about his business:<\/p>\n

Pomona Swap Meet:<\/strong>\u00a0 When and how did you get started in this industry?<\/span>
\nJaime Perea:<\/strong>\u00a0 I used to be a driver for a company. Working there, I learned a lot about auto parts. As I learned more and more, it became a passion of mine, which made me want to sell parts for myself.<\/span><\/p>\n

PSM:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0What’s the best part of your job?<\/span>
\nJP:<\/strong>\u00a0 The best part of my job is providing the best service and help to my customers… qualities they can’t find just anywhere else.<\/span><\/p>\n

PSM:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0If you won the lottery tonight, what kind of classic car would you buy?<\/span>
\nJP:<\/strong>\u00a0 While I haven’t always been in to classic cars and I don’t currently own one myself, if I were to win the lottery, I’d definitely get a 1972 Ford Pickup!<\/span><\/p>\n
PSM:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0Any favorite memories of the Pomona Swap Meet that you would like to share with us?<\/span>
\nJP:<\/strong>\u00a0 The best memories I have are just being at the swap meet. My family and I go out together, we barbecue, we bond, and we have a wonderful time.<\/span><\/p>\n
PSM:<\/strong>\u00a0 So Ford or Chevy, or ???<\/span>
\nJP:<\/strong>\u00a0 Chevy!<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t
