Luke Heesterman this year’s Isuzu Trucks I1-GP national technical skills
On September 10, CablePrice’s Wellington branch entered 4 technicians in this year’s Isuzu Trucks I1-GP national technical skills competition taking out 4 of the 5 top spots including Luke Heesterman coming first place!
Due to Covid-19 restrictions, this year’s competition was held in a new format. All competition tasks had to be completed remotely at dealerships and the contestants were supervised by their Service Managers. This year saw 11 contestants from two dealerships. CablePrice Wellington had 4 participants while CAL Isuzu Hamilton had 7 participants.
The competition consisted of two parts – Theory Exam and Practical Scenarios. During the Theory Exam each contestant had to answer 25 general mechanical knowledge questions in no longer than 75 minutes. Exam questions were borrowed from past years worldwide I1-GP Tournaments. This gave the Contestants a taste of language used by Japan and the level of knowledge expected to be seen by Isuzu Motors Limited.
For the practical part, contestants had to troubleshoot two real breakdown situations seen in New Zealand earlier this year. For the first scenario, it was necessary to troubleshoot a DPD (Diesel Particulate Diffuser) fault, and for the second they had to identify a faulty component in an electrical system. Contestants had not only to identify the malfunctioning component, but also explain the mechanism of the failure and describe how the faulty part affects the operation of other systems in the truck. Luke scored top points from the practical section, while Paul Everson from CAL Isuzu Hamilton, was the best in the theory exam.

Luke and Paul will make a strong team, which will be representing New Zealand in the international final of the I1-GP e-Competition against 86 participants from 43 countries.
The New Zealand team will travel to the Isuzu NZ Auckland Training Centre in November and will be completing tasks online while they are live streamed to Japan.

𝗕𝗶𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗥𝗼𝗻 & 𝗕𝗲𝗻 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗧𝗵𝗼𝗺𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗲𝗻 𝗟𝗼𝗴𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 for taking the first Tigercat 632H Log Skidder sold by CablePrice Ltd.
This is Thomassen Loggings 3rd H-Series Log Skidder although the previous 2 machines were 6 Wheelers. They previously have run Tigercat 632E Log Skidders also, so it was a no brainer to stick with what was proven.
The Tigercat Skidders are built for high production and leads the market with best-in-class features, including factory-installed tethering points and exceptional cab visibility with a 220 degrees rotating heated Seat. Operator Fonuku Lona was especially impressed by the added comfort features — with cruise control making a real difference on long drags.
