In 1997, the started a mobile unit called the Badlands Express to reach people in five reservation communities. That saves time and expense for people who can't always make the trip to Rushville, about 26 miles from Pine Ridge.
The unit sees a steady stream of customers at all the mobile locations. People say having the bank come to the reservation is not only convenient but it helps people establish credit histories.
