Driver retention, a shrinking pool of technicians, increased competition, and increased regulation are just the tip of the iceberg. Maximizing efficiency through new equipment can help fleets deliver more in less time, but one dead battery can put a truck out of service, eliminating all the gains from new equipment. Fleets have a myriad of issues to worry about today–let’s work together to ensure batteries are not one of them.
