Good Hoods + Great Prices – McMahon Columbus + DEX

Aug 31, 2025 | McMahon Truck Centers Columbus

Quick-ship, OEM-Quality Hoods at a Fraction of the Dealer Price

If you run trucks in Columbus or anywhere in the Buckeye State, you know a broken hood means more than just a repair bill – it means costly downtime. At McMahon Truck Centers of Columbus, we’ve teamed up with DEX, a Volvo Group brand, to give Ohio truck owners a faster, more affordable way to replace their hoods without the usual hassle.

With the DEX Painted hood Program, you can get new or renovated OEM-quality hoods that are pre-painted, VIN-matched for perfect color fit, and ready to bolt on – no long lead times, no inflated dealer costs.

How McMahon Columbus Makes It Easy

From local delivery drivers to long-haul fleets covering I-70 and beyond, our Ohio customers have the same priorities: keep repairs fast and quality high. That’s exactly what the Dex Painted Hood Program delivers.

Here’s how we handle it for you:

  • Source your hood from DEX’s extensive painted parts inventory
  • Match your VIN and paint code for an exact color match
  • Arrange fast shipping directly to your location or repair shop in Columbus, across Ohio, or nationwide

Why Choose a DEX Painted Hood

DEX painted hoods are built to OE specifications and coated with premium Axalta Imron paint for exceptional durability. Ohio truck owners choose DEX for:

  • Faster Turnaround: Most hoods ship in 2-3 business days versus the 3-4 weeks a new OEM painted hood can take.
  • Lower Cost: McMahon and DEX make it easy to save, offering painted hoods that deliver durability and quality for less than what you’d typically pay at a dealership.
  • Peace of Mind: Every hood comes with a 7-year warranty plus a 1-year workmanship warranty.
  • Custom Looks: Single-tone, two-tone, or three-tone finishes, all matched precisely to your truck’s VIN.
