On Saturday, December 7, and Sunday, December 8, the Mega Trucks Festival took place in the Brabanthallen in Den Bosch. We were of course present again with a stand, but there was plenty more to admire. On Saturday, Jan Jaap walked through the halls and took some beautiful photos. Below is a selection.

At the Scania stand, there were lots of show trucks!

The new Scania from Edwin Salari, equipped with, among other things, a Fox Parts sun visor, Classic lightbox, and Michelin figures.

At Wierks, you learn in style ;)

You can tell that many large transport companies go all out with big stands and several show trucks. The focus here is on recruiting new drivers.

The Iveco from Roy van Rijswijk is equipped with, among other things, a Fox Parts sun visor, Classic lightbox, and Ledson Pollux 9+ spotlights.

The eye-catcher of the weekend. Iveco built a show truck in a Metallica theme. The build was done by Van Dinteren, the interior by M&M Truckdesign, and MW Designs created the paintwork, including the special paint. Curious about the story behind this truck? Loek tells us more in the first episode of the new season of Custom Made Trucks Holland. Available from Thursday, December 19 on the YouTube channel.

Rick van der Wijst is known for his stunning red trucks. On this Scania you can see, among other things, a Fox Parts sun visor, Lazer Sentinel spotlights, and Omnius Torpedo lights.

Details!

This DAF was built in honor of the 100th anniversary of Transportbedrijf Vos from Zaltbommel. An Aerosign lightbox above the Fox Parts sun visor, a Solarguard underspoiler, and Omnius dual-burners complete this DAF.

Nice and busy!

In the entrance hall, these Volvos immediately set the mood. Above, you can see a new Volvo Aero equipped with a Turbo Truckparts underspoiler, a Fox Parts sun visor, and Lazer spotlights. Below, you see a more old-school setup on the new Volvo FH5 from Van Houten. This one also features a Fox Parts sun visor. Additionally, the roof is fitted with a roof rack and Nedking air horns.

On the left is Kees and on the right is Rick, you may know them from Custom Made Trucks Holland. Kees is behind the camera and handles the editing, while Rick is known as the interviewer and voice-over of the show.

Above you can see the new Omnius side marker lights in the red version. Below you see the same light, but in orange. A newly developed lamp based on the old block lamp. It’s an LED light, but without visible LED points, beautifully smooth light. The lamp is available in orange, red, clear, and orange with an indicator function.

The new Scania from Mees Exalto. A beautifully built machine, and what especially stands out is the paintwork. You’ll see more about that as well in the first episode of Custom Made Trucks, on Thursday, December 19.

Of course, Martijn Kuipers was also present at the Scania stand. We supply most of the accessories for the Knippie Knippie Scania. You can see more about this on his YouTube-kanaal.

Omnius Torpedo lights and Omnius Coltrane air horns. Super cool!

New MAN for Jan Volmer Transport.

Toon’s Scania also drew a lot of attention!

We would like to thank the Mega Trucks Festival team for the organization. Frans wanted to point out that Tamara isn’t in the picture here, so hereby: Tamara, thank you as well!

Thank you to everyone who visited our stand, and see you next year!
