After listening to many of the presentations, it reinforced many of the things that we are doing right with our fleet and I came away with some new ideas to explore and possibly implement to become even better.”
~Paul Hanson, Director of State Fleet Services, NDDOT, Bismarck, ND

As always GFX provided a forum to network with some of the greatest minds in Fleet Management. GFX allows me to learn new, different and better ways to keep the wheels rolling in our fleet in the most efficient manner.”

“The Conference was informative and a great networking opportunity that enabled me to discover new opportunities for the City of Columbus for Green activities and improving processes.”
~ Kelly Reagan Fleet Administrator City of Columbus, Columbus, Ohio

The conference was a success for me. I learned new methods and ideas regarding managing the fleet. Working with only individuals who were in the fleet industry was very beneficial in both time and knowledge learned. I joined a new association (MEMA) and met new contacts. The sessions were helpful with providing real solutions to some of the issues I am currently facing. Great job!
~ Chuck Forman, Orange County Sanitation District, Fountain Valley, Calif.

One of the most focused and efficient Government Fleet events I have ever attended! I returned home with 3 pages of ideas and contacts.
~ Richard Battersby, Contra Costa County, Martinez, Calif.

I was very impressed with the focused class subjects that pertained to the questions most public fleet managers face throughout the year. In addition, the networking component of the conference was excellent and I utilized the breaks and lunch periods to meet and ask specific fleet questions of fleet managers from across the country.
~ Tony Jobanek, City of Eugene, Eugene, Oregon

Many of the other conferences try to cater to such a wide range of fleets. With a clear government focus, this conference, as it grows, will provide information and networking that is more public sector oriented. I'm looking forward to the next one.
~ Chris Burgeson, City of Napa, Napa, Calif.

The networking opportunity was fantastic. In these challenging times, learning what others are doing and their "good ideas" was priceless.

"GFX conference sessions addressed exactly what I need to know as an internal service division of a Government Municipality. I.E. What are KPI's for like-fleets; How my fleet measures up. How to sell new technologies to upper management; How colleagues solve like-problems (Green technology infrastructure). More importantly, what isn't working and why."
~ Stephen Kibler, Fleet Manager, City of Loveland, Loveland, Colorado
