National Carriers spokesman, Ed Kentner, stated, “Jeff Gutzler is a perfect choice to represent the “Elite” Fleet. An overachiever in every area we monitor; safety, operations, and customer service. Jeff is a leader in each category. The best way I could describe him is as a family man who leads by example.”
