In case you missed it…
Our live show coverage was designed to give you
a taste of the show experience. We did more than
straight reporting from a jam-packed press conference
schedule, though. We also looked for the cool stuff
you'd see if you were walking the aisles, goody bag
and show planner in hand. All stories are on our web-
site at
http://bit.ly/eqwconexpo:
Day 1, 2 and 3 photo galleries, including opening
day ceremonies, the major players in the North Hall,
the Silver Lot and an overview of all the trucks that
made it to the show. Look for a certain cool transform-
er from Sany in Day 2.
JCB's famous Dancing Diggers
made their fifth appearance at the
show, this time to the accompani-
ment of a rock-violin group. We've
got the video.
Volvo Construction Equipment unveiled its latest
in a long line of concept machines, the GaiaX compact
excavator, which takes a cue from another famous
Swedish company, Ikea. Also at the Volvo booth,
something to consider for Christmas: a Lego Technic
loader that can be reassembled as an artic, available in
August.
And a big crowd pleaser: Case tricked out its 580
Super N Wide Track backhoe to match a two-tone
black-and-gold Ram 3500 Laramie Longhorn Crew Cab
pickup. It's scheduled to go on tour this year at a Case
and/or Ram dealer near you.
And that's not all...
