On the evening of March 2nd, as we were putting the finishing touches on our booth and preparing six units for display, I found myself hoping—okay, praying—that our hard work would pay off and a strong turnout would follow. Thankfully, our efforts were rewarded, as the show was a resounding success.
Our booth showcased several exciting new products, including our upgraded crane line, service bodies, the new all-aluminum fuel/lube body, the Maintainer Accessory Products van, and a variety of new features and options. All of these were incredibly well received by attendees.
The event required an immense amount of preparation, but it was unquestionably worth the effort. Our booth looked fantastic (thanks to the contributions of so many team members), and it provided an excellent opportunity to help celebrate our 50th anniversary in business!

It was a quick turnaround, as we headed straight from Las Vegas to Indianapolis, closing out a non-stop 15-day road trip. Despite the hectic schedule, we were once again pleased with the turnout in Indy. Our booth featured five units, highlighting our new products, improved features, and expanded options.
It was a pleasure reconnecting with many of you—and your staff—at one or both of the shows. Our relationships with business partners like you, current customers, potential customers, and vendors are invaluable. It’s always great to catch up!

Maintainer was fortunate to secure prime booth locations at both the ConExpo and NTEA shows, giving us the opportunity to showcase some of our best products. We were thrilled to hear positive feedback from a diverse group of attendees, including business partners, existing customers, potential clients, vendors, and even competitors, who all shared their appreciation for our booth and product offerings.
Over the past few years, the sales team has worked tirelessly to overhaul much of our product line, including significant upgrades to our crane systems and service bodies. Additionally, we’ve introduced industry-leading innovations, such as our all-aluminum crane service and lube PM & fuel bodies. A huge thank you goes to our engineering designers, procurement team, and production staff—our entire team—for not only meeting, but exceeding expectations. The feedback from customers and potential clients was overwhelmingly positive, with many commenting on the exciting new products displayed throughout our booth.
One comment, in particular, stood out and confirmed that we’re on the right path. A long-term fleet customer, who has been with us for 33 years and has used various competitive products over the years, shared this sentiment: “We’ve been around this show and can confidently say that we are buying trucks from the right company.”
It’s always encouraging to hear that kind of reassurance from our most loyal customers. Thanks to you, our business partners, for providing feedback on ways to continually strive to make our products and services the best in our industries.
I may sound like a broken record, but I’ll say it again: we are continually working to maintain and enhance the quality and service in everything we do. This commitment is how we intend to not only preserve our competitive advantage today, but also continue to build upon it for the future.
