Background[edit]
AMTRALEASE[edit]
AMTRALEASE was an American truck leasing and rental association. The company was formed in 1978 as an alternative for independent, full-service truck leasing firms who were unable to gain membership into NationaLease due to territorial restrictions. The association became a trademarked organization in 1979 under the incorporated entity American Truck Leasing Network.[4] AMTRALEASE was the formalized name that American Truck Leasing Network adopted. Charter members included the founder of AMTRALEASE which was United Truck Leasing Corp., Kris-Way, Public Service, Decarolis, Leroy Holding Company, and sixteen other truck leasing firms.[5]
It was made up of members[6] that provided reciprocal road service to leased vehicles and equipment within a certain geographic area of the affiliates.[7][8][9] Also fuel, and substitute vehicles if needed. Co-operative purchasing of trucks and tractors was provided for the benefit of the membership. Robert Abrams, President and CEO of United Truck Leasing Corporation at that time, was elected as the consortium's first president.[10] In 1997, Bill Brown was named chairman of the association.[11] The organization held annual conventions and quarterly meetings with speakers.
In 2001, the association was strategic partners with private entities such as AmeriQuest[12][13] to develop additional services. After a vote of its members, the organization was acquired by AmeriQuest in 2003.[14][15] AmeriQuest merged with Nationalease in December, 2006 and adopted that organization's name moving forward.[16][17]
