Pest Control Cube: Alpha Ecological's Nissan

Who needs a big-ol' panel van when a subcompact tall wagon will do? That must be Alpha Ecological's theory;  they displayed two of their Nissan Cubes at the Portland International Auto Show. A "green" pest control company, Alpha slaps a roof rack on the Cube's roof (to hold the ladder), and paints the cars with the company's colors.

Alpha currently operates in six states, but definitely has the best pest control vehicles in the U.S. I love to see companies switching to small vehicles and installing roof racks.

Why are they using import vehicles in a time when american jobs are critical to our economy.
Assembled in America, does not make it american made. Makes you wonder where the chemicals come from as well.
I guess use American sounds great until its your company and cutting cost by using imports then is not mentioned.
Studies and surveys have been done to find that it is just as cheep to use American made or very minimal upcharge, but we have been programed to think import is cheeper. Even to spend a few extra $ to use American would help us in this recetion.
Just take a % off the tech's commission to pay for it all. Seems to be the American way and we just can't break that mold.
Alpha used to be a family oriented business and took care of the employee's, then they doubled the management and assistant size. that created surcharges that came out of the Technicians wages and the turn over has increased dramatically since, as well as moral has been affected dramatically, therefore quality of work has suffered and complaints have increased dramatically.
Jim and Linda should have never left there post's since then, internal abuse of labor
