ABOUT THE NATIONAL TRUCK SUMMIT
The demand for pickup trucks, SUVs and crossovers is at an all time high. With lower fuel costs and the capability and flexibility these vehicles offer, popularity in the segment continues to grow. Nowhere is this more apparent than Minnesota where new vehicle sales of light trucks, SUVs and crossover are far above the national average.
On the eve of the Twin Cities Auto Show, Automotive News and the Twin Cities Auto Show will highlight the nation’s passion for pickup trucks, SUVs and crossovers through
discussion and demonstration. Join us for discussions from industry leaders on the past and future of the segment.
