Shane is based in Whangarei, covering CAL>Isuzu truck sales from Puhoi to Cape Reinga and providing customers with fast, local and professional response times.

Shane has three decades of heavy transport experience with excellent national contacts, great knowledge of products, suppliers, regulations and rules and understands how important the heavy transport industry is in keeping the nation moving.
In his spare time, and weather permitting, Shane can be found with his partner out in his boat exploring the Northland coast.

With more than 37 years in the automotive industry, Ian has the experience to be able to put himself in your shoes (or cab).

After 24 years on the road he began using that experience to sell trucks, and after 13 years working for a major Japanese brand, in his own words – “I have moved to NZ’s number one selling brand to open the next chapter in my career”.
Married with two daughters, Ian is a keen fisherman, a sometime golfer who enjoys rugby and watching any sport with a V8 involved – whether on land or water.

I have diesel in my blood.
Since he left school, Richard has worked in trucking. From parts, to driving and everything in between – “it was the family business”, and as he says “ it’s all I’ve ever done because I love it”.
“The trucking game teaches you the importance of teamwork, hard work and above all – loyalty”. These are themes that run through Richard’s life and career, from his family life with his wife, three children and 2 Grandchildren, to his other great love – Rugby League in general, and the mighty Papakura Sea Eagles in particular.
As well as being a loyal fan of the Warriors since 1995 (he’s even been to both their grand finals), the Papakura Sea Eagles have been part of Richard’s life – from playing in the Juniors all the way through to the Seniors, followed by 3 years coaching.
These days, when not working or spending time with the growing family, Richard is involved with Counties Touch, where he has been involved with coaching and managing at junior and senior levels for the last 7 years.
“What I bring to CAL is a positive attitude and many years’ experience, plus I believe I’m a good team player”. We know he is.
