Ford, FCCC, Freightliner, International, Mack, Mitsubishi Fuso, Nissan, and Ram also scheduled press conferences at the Show.

To help attendees plan which booths to visit, 90 exhibitors are showcasing new products online in advance of the event as part of The Work Truck Show’s exclusive New Product Spotlight and Green Product Showcase programs. Offerings range from transmissions and suspensions to trucks and bodies. They include a variety of innovative power solutions, cargo management systems and vocational equipment from snowplows to cranes.

If it goes in or on a vocational truck — or helps an upfitter install equipment — you can find it at the Show. To learn more about these products, visit the featured exhibitors section of the online floorplan at worktruckshow.com/floorplan.
