We saw this story on a recent in-house competition for heavy-duty truck technicians held at Empire Truck Sales in Slidell, La. In addition to Thomas buses, the Jackson, Miss.-based dealership also specializes in heavy-duty trucks by Freightliner, Western Star and Sterling, as well as American LaFrance emergency vehicle.
The event held on July 25 calls to mind NAPT’s annual America’s Best School Bus Inspector & School Bus Inspector Training & Skills Competition, this year scheduled for Sept. 22-25 in Greenville, S.C., at Michelin.
