Frontline cameo
October 23, 2008
| by: Todd Dills
Specialized auto hauler Reliable Carriers makes a cameo appearance this week in PBS Frontline’s two-hour “>Heat” documentary — airing this week, on most stations this past Tuesday, and you can watch it online here (the segment in question is No. 7). The doc, about global warming, doesn’t mention the trucking industry directly, but a Reliable hauler is seen quite capably delivering a Chevy Volt electric-car prototype (pictured) to a test site where the Volt proceeds to give the producer all he needs to skewer the automobile industry for its technological inadequacies. Somebody apparently forgot to power the vehicle up, or worse.
