Think You Know Trucks? Take Our 19-Question Fleet Trivia Challenge

Think you know your way around a truck? Here's your chance to prove it. At the 2026 Work Truck Exchange (WTX) and Heavy Duty Trucking Exchange (HDTX), we decided to have a little fun and put a room full of fleet managers, trucking professionals, and industry experts to the test.

The challenge? Nineteen trivia questions covering everything from diesel engines and truck components to VINs, trucking history, and a few things that had even the most experienced people in the room scratching their heads.

Now we're bringing the challenge to you!

Three Rounds, 19 Questions, and a Little Friendly Competition

We recorded our live trivia competition and turned it into a video so you can play along from wherever you are. No need to have attended the event, and no special equipment required. Just grab a pen, keep track of your answers, and see how you stack up against the fleet professionals who played in person.

The competition features three rounds that get progressively harder.

• Round 1 – You Work in Fleet, Right? A few questions to get you warmed up and feeling pretty good about your truck knowledge.
• Round 2 – How Well Do You Actually Know Your Truck? Time to dig a little deeper into the components, terminology, and details you might encounter every day.
• Round 3 – Wait, Seriously? Here's where trucking history, technical knowledge, and a few unexpected facts come into play.

Ever wondered why a semi-trailer is called a semi? Know what a chicken light is? Or what the W in 5W-30 actually stands for?

You'll get your chance to answer all three, along with 16 other questions. We reveal the answers after all three rounds, so there's plenty of time to make your guesses. And no Googling!

Think You Can Beat the Fleet Experts?

Watch the video, play along, and let us know how you did. Drop your score in the comments and tell us which question caught you off guard.

Better yet, share the challenge with a coworker who always seems to have the answer to everything. There's nothing wrong with a little friendly competition, especially when everyone walks away learning something new.
