Work Truck
What if your next big fleet solution, supplier connection, or operational breakthrough was waiting at one table in Scottsdale? That’s exactly what keeps fleet managers coming back to Work Truck Exchange (WTX) year after year.
WTX isn’t built around crowded expo halls, endless walking, or collecting business cards you’ll never look at again. It’s designed to make every conversation count through curated meetings, intentional networking, and real discussions with the people shaping the future of fleet.
And with only 10 fleet manager spots remaining, this year’s event is already shaping up to be one you don’t want to hear about after the fact.
Taking place September 23-25, 2026, at The Scottsdale Resort & Spa in Scottsdale, Arizona, WTX is designed differently from your typical industry event. Never heard of it? Let's change that. Been wanting to attend but forgot to submit your application? Don't wait, spots will fill up!
What is Work Truck Exchange (WTX)?

- Pre-scheduled 1:1 meetings with supplier hosts tailored to your fleet needs
- Interactive roundtable discussions with industry peers
- Focused networking opportunities built for real conversations and relationship-building
- Educational sessions and actionable takeaways you can bring back to your operation
And yes, it's Work Truck, so of course we’re mixing in some fun, too.
Our annual trivia luncheon returns with prizes and a little friendly competition, and LEGEND is bringing back the attendee-favorite axe-throwing van because sometimes the best stress reliever is hurling an axe in a van with your closest fleet friends.
Fleet managers attending will also connect directly with companies you want to connect with, including:
- Adrian
- Blue Bird Body Company
- Fleetworthy Solutions
- Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co
- Kingbee Vans
- Legend Fleet
