Work trucks build America
Work Truck Week® 2026 reinforced the critical role commercial vehicles and tradespeople play in building and maintaining society. Ford Pro highlighted what it calls the Essential Economy — the 3 million businesses and 95 million workers across construction, manufacturing, service, energy, and logistics that drive $12 trillion in gross domestic product. Knapheide launched America’s Work Truck™, kicking off a campaign to define the modern work truck category, elevate the skilled trades and reinforce the 178-year-old company’s position in the future of American work. Educational sessions throughout the week covered industry trends and forecasts.
