Aaron Kunz and Jerren Staker of Riverton High School were recently named state champions in the AAA Student Auto Skills series. Aaron and Jerren were chose to represent Utah in the national competition held June 14 in Dearborn, Mich. At the national finals, each team had two tests. One was a 100-question written exam. The other was a timed event where each team had to identify and repair deliberately installed “bugs” in identical 2011 Ford F-150 XLT trucks. These bugs ranged from a no start situation to a broken horn and hood latch. While the Utah team did well in Michigan and placed in the top half of competitors, they did not win the competition.
