Today in Road Transport, 2nd March 2009

Those infamous Top Gear trucks are going to be appearing on the Truck & Driver stand at Truckfest this year - in fact, it looks like Truckfest will be the best-supported show of the year as far as the manufacturers are concerned, now that the CV Show and Tip-Ex have been cancelled.
