The Specialty Equipment Market Association show, or SEMA as it is better known, showcased thousands of interesting, crazy, oddball, awesome, and some just plain obnoxious rigs this year.
This massive industry automotive aftermarket show—with over 30 miles of walkable aisle space, 3,000+ new products, and 165,000 in attendance over four days—is held late October/early November each year and invites media, manufacturers, buyers, and exhibitors from all around the globe to attend. In addition to the vehicles, tons of products were highlighted too. I trekked over 53 miles around the Las Vegas Convention Center (over four days on foot!), and captured a smattering of four- and six-wheeled rigs. Truly something for all enthusiasts here. Remember: Every vehicle is an adventure!
Hope you enjoy!
