Mobile Specialty Vehicles was founded as Mobile Medical Vehicles, Inc. and operated under the assumed name of Mobile Medical® in November of 1980 by Daniel S. Ayres. The Ayres family has been true pioneers in the specialty and recreational vehicle industry and got their start in the early 1950’s. David Ayres, the father of Daniel Ayres, was one of the founding members and former president of the Recreational Vehicle Dealers Association (RVDA). The Ayres family operated 3 large and highly successful dealerships in Beaumont, Houston, and Dallas, Texas. The dealerships were also fully equipped up-fitters, as well as manufacturers, that built trailers from the ground up for such unique applications as atmospheric testing vehicles for the petroleum industry. Daniel got his start in the family business at the ripe age of 6 years old, first sweeping the shop and later working in the engineering and fabricating divisions, hand drawing these custom vehicles to be built from scratch. His eye for detail and his attention to customer service would later build the foundation for what would be the most prestigious name in specialty vehicles. As Mobile Specialty Vehicles prospered and its reputation for producing high quality medical vehicles grew, more inquiries came in for vehicles of all types. The company has since grown to build vehicles for every manner of application on many different platforms, from command and control units, to mobile surgery trailers, and even medical boats. Mobile Specialty Vehicles builds them all and backs them with the industry’s best customer service.
