Mike Berka General This photo is really good, and this 702515 container was manufactured by Great Dane, in December 1993. That is also true about J B Hunt having 3,000 of these containers. They actually had around 3,700. These containers were retired in 2001, and 2002 when J B Hunt began purchasing 53 foot containers from Wabash National. 3/4/2012 8:59:10 PM
