Alongside our valued channel partners, we were able to raise enough to help approximately eight more families.”
Tori’s Angels pays for all medical and travel expenses not covered by insurance. Each child is supported from the date of acceptance until his/her 19th birthday.
Channel Partners Recognized
Arnold Motor Supply also recognized key channel partners during its annual event.
BBB Industries received the Vendor of the Year award for the outstanding value BBB brings to the stores and distribution centers.
“We partnered with BBB on a new category this year and saw immediate results,” said Brad Edwardson, vice president of business development at Arnold Motor Supply. “Once inventory was in place, the BBB team kicked off extensive training and forty-two scheduled days of fieldwork. We couldn’t ask for anything more from a partner.”
The company named Brian Bouwkamp and Craig Johnson of The Heartland Group as Reps of the Year. The Heartland Group represents Rotary wheel-service products and related automotive and industrial equipment.
“Our sales pros have the utmost confidence in Brian and Craig,” Edwardson said. “Their customer service on the selling and support side is why we’ve seen triple-digit growth in that category.”
Arnold Motor Supply created a new award this year to recognize partners working alongside the company as it expands its store locations and distribution points. Arnold named Russ Wilshusen of Schnair Sales the Agency Partner of the Year for always going above and beyond, including helping with new-store setups.
“It doesn’t matter the job, Russ jumps in to help,” Johnson said. “He’s everywhere we need him to be and we appreciate his constant dedication to our company.”

Continental has added a new line of filtration products to its fast-growing aftermarket portfolio.
The new line features a wide range of OE-quality oil, fuel, air and cabin filters for applications on domestic and import cars, vans, SUVs and light trucks.
“Built to ensure safe engine operation and clean air in the vehicle interior, our premium OE-quality filters are designed to deliver reliable protection against dirt, abrasion, ultrafine particles and moisture for injection systems, engines and passengers,” said Laura Huerst, Continental product manager. “These world-class filters are produced to the same quality and performance standards we apply to our original-equipment parts.”
Continental premium oil filters are manufactured using the most advanced technologies and innovative filter media available to ensure the best engine performance and minimum fuel consumption, according to the company. This is especially important as the industry’s use of new “long-life” oils and longer service intervals continue to increase.
The filters are offered in spin-on and immersion designs.
Continental air filters help ensure a constant air supply to the combustion chamber by efficiently filtering out impurities and dirt particles that can clog injectors, increase engine wear and affect fuel consumption. They are designed to deliver superior efficiency and feature a high dirt-particle-absorption capacity, according to Continental.
Continental cabin filters feature a pollen and active carbon formulation that provides the best possible atmosphere and comfort in the vehicle interior, even under adverse weather conditions.
The cabin filters offer a very high level of efficiency and microbiological decomposition, as well as an excellent resistance to moisture. The pollen filters are made of nonwoven material that can capture more than 90% of particles with a diameter of over 2 μm. The nonwoven activated carbon filters can capture particles of 0.01 to 2 μm and effectively prevent gas, bacteria, fungi and odors from entering the vehicle’s interior, according to the company.
Continental gasoline fuel filters employ cutting-edge technology to meet the demands of modern high-performance fuel injection systems. The filters are designed to retain impurities less than a micrometer and also separate water from fuel to help prevent power loss and potential engine damage.

Arnold Motor Supply recently moved to a new location in Waterloo, Iowa.
The 19,500-square-foot facility provides improved retail space, expanded inventory and additional distribution capacity.
The move merges the Cedar Falls and Waterloo stores into a larger facility so the company can continue to support the growing aftermarket parts and supplies needs of its customers.
“The average age of vehicles on the road continues to rise, with industrywide shortages of new and used vehicles, amplifying the demand for replacement parts,” said Eric Johnson, president and managing partner at Arnold Motor Supply.
Adding a distribution hub in the Waterloo area will allow for better access to parts for Arnold’s area stores and, ultimately, the customer.
“Our customers don’t have time to wait,” Johnson said. “When they need a part, they typically need it right now.”
Arnold Motor Supply is excited to continue to serve the Cedar Falls and Waterloo communities at the 2710 Wagner Road location.
Arnold Motor Supply is a member of the Auto Value network of independent distributors, auto parts stores and professional service repair shops located throughout the world.
