Posted by on November 19, 2013

The SEMA Show is the premier automotive specialty products trade event in the world. It draws the industry’s brightest minds and hottest products to one place, the Las Vegas Convention Center. In addition, the SEMA Show provides attendees with educational seminars, product demonstrations, special events, networking opportunities and more.

There is way more to see and do than any one person could accomplish in the duration of the show.  Its also not all just offroading related products so maybe you could see everything you wanted to see.  For this episode we’ve enlisted the help of someone would actually made it to the show.  And while this isn’t a complete listing of everything offroading at the show, its a run down of the stuff that really caught our eyes.  What caught your eye?  Leave us a comment below!

The idea was to make every aspect of this truck better than before, so the first thing the engineers did after stripping and upgrading every inch of the frame and suspension was to stuff a brand-new 5.3-liter E-Rod V-8 crate motor (336 horsepower and 350 pounds-feet of torque) from the GM Performance catalog (Part No. 19258004) and mate it to a corporate 4L70E automatic transmission. – Photo and caption credit to pickuptruck.com

A concept roof basket design sat up top as well. – Photo and caption credit to offroadextreme.com
