“We selected Fleetmatics simply because it’s the easiest system we’ve used to manage our fleet of vehicles,” said Erik Bosi, Director of Maintenance of KRD Trucking in Lynwood, Illinois, a trucking company for material hauling and heavy equipment with over 400 vehicles in its fleet. “Installation was straight-forward, so we were up-and-running in no time, enabling us to monitor idling times, locate our vehicles and review historical data. “
