Indianapolis, Indiana: Home to college basketball, the best shrimp cocktail you’ll ever have and, of course, NTEA’s Work Truck Show. This year, the Work Truck Show set a new record for attendance, drawing 11,905 (verified) industry professionals to the show. Over the last five years, NTEA expanded the exhibit floor by more than 40%, but still had a sizable waiting list of potential exhibitors.

Be sure to watch the video above for the sights, sounds and news from the show.
