Let's Not Forget That A Great Number Of The world's industrial vehicles are diesel-powered. We saw many tire manufacturers trying to get a share of this market, and some are aiming "bigger" than others!
Elevated Cover
One Of The Coolest Products We Saw Was This truck-top tent, from ARB. It keeps the camper and his food away from critters at night and also doubles as a shade canopy during the day.

Hitch Science, There Will Be A Test
In the running for the coolest product was this complicated hitch system built by hensley Manufacturing, which changes the effective pivot center of your hitch to eliminate any trailer sway (even if a wheel falls off) and allows for turns up to 82 degrees.

Big Injectors
Extrude hone had this little model of a diesel engine to show how larger injectors can help. If you send them your stock injectors, it can get them to flow 10-20 percent over stock with ease for just $40 per injector.

We don't know much about this cool biodiesel Cadillac Escalade Ext, other than it was built by Ecotrek and claims 1,000 hp. We poked around and saw a dual fueler and some other hi-po items on it, so it just may be possible. We want one.
Remember This Chevelle?It was in our "project garage" section of the sept '07 issue and was looking a lot closer to finished in the Bassani Exhaust booth than it was back then.
