March 10, 2016
For our last look at the NTEA Work Truck Show floor, we got our tough on with some Western Stars, saw how extreme a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter can be, and checked out some Hino machines and more hardware promising to make tough trucks work smarter.

At a trade show that was predicted to inject $16 million into the Indianapolis economy, of course there's lots to see. For our last look at the NTEA Work Truck Show floor, we got our tough on with some Western Stars, saw how extreme a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter can be, and checked out some Hino machines and more hardware promising to make tough trucks work smarter.

About the Author

Aaron Marsh

Before computerization had fully taken hold and automotive work took someone who speaks engine, Aaron grew up in Upstate New York taking cars apart and fixing and rewiring them, keeping more than a few great jalopies (classics) on the road that probably didn't deserve to be. He spent a decade inside the Beltway covering Congress and the intricacies of the health care system before a stint in local New England news, picking up awards for both pen and camera.

He's written about you-name-it, from transportation and law and the courts to events of all kinds and telecommunications, and landed in trucking when he joined Fleet Owner in July 2015. Long an editorial leader, he's a keeper of knowledge at Fleet Owner ready to dive in on the technical and the topical inside and all around trucking—and still turns a wrench or two. Or three. 

And he's never without a camera, or so rumor has it.
