As a full line Hyundai dealer Modern will be able to provide tracked excavators ranging from 3,000 to 100,000 pound capacities and wheel loaders up to 65,000 pound capacities. All units come with the impressive range of standard features Hyundai is known for including weight sensors, backup cameras, terrain safety systems, digital vehicle diagnostics and tracking, plus  full cab AC/Heat and bluetooth entertainment system. Modern is building the fleet to handle projects large and small with flexible rent periods and rent-to-own options.

"Without doubt the launching of a rental fleet is an exciting moment in our relationship with Hyundai" said Rick Nelson, Vice President and General Manager of Modern Equipment & Supply.
