C.R. England has awarded a Harley-Davison Sportster Iron 883™ to one of its top drivers for showing improvement in Mile Per Gallon Average (MPG) and Average Idle percentage for the First Quarter 2012.
Devery Hope was selected as the Harley-Davison winner among five finalists. Hope is currently a C. R. England company driver in the National Division and drives a 2012 Freightliner Cascadia. He has been with C.R. England since August of 2010 and lives in the Sacramento, California area. Hope was able to achieve a 7.48 MPG as well as a 6.5 percent idle time. He was well above 5 tenths greater than his peers in both his fleet and the National Division. Hope attributes his success to following the tips he receives from the Operations and Fuel departments. He concentrates on progressive shifting, staying in top gear as much as possible and trying to rarely idle his truck.
The other finalists included Brad Middlemas, Container Division Driver; Robert Perryman, Dedicated Division independent contractor; Frederick Stadel, National Division independent contractor; and Dale Gibbons, Company Intermodal driver.
The Iron 883™ model is the anti-chrome motorcycle―decked in black from front to back with a defiant attitude that embraces the pure essence of riding. Black powder-coated 883cc engine with black rocker covers. Black chopped fenders that show off a lot of rubber. Black front forks with gators add an old-school look. Black oil tank cover, belt guard and drag bars.
