NationaLease, a full service truck leasing organization, has announced the nine regional winners of the fifth annual NationaLease Tech Challenge exam. Each year, the NationaLease Tech Challenge gives member-company technicians the opportunity to compete in a series of events testing their maintenance knowledge and skills.
