Hey Matt, Hope you enjoyed your trip to sin city. Speaking of sin, it would be a sin if you don't hange your floor drains to go into a oil recovery system that can be pumped out. Would save the fish in the creek. Surely from your past you would understand not to put oil in the creek. You can say you keep your floor clean but we know oils are going in the creek. Accidental spills happen or tank gets a leak. It happens! Why have floor drain if you don't expect to need to use them. Taking that protection would at least make up.for your past accident. You make plenty off these videos to do the right thing.

Hard to fathom the setup and tear down time to that. No wonder they only do it every three years. Just the cost of moving and setup of the biggest equipment blows my mind !! Great video. It’s neat watching all the different content creators is cool !

I've participated in trade shows for my employer and was amazed at how fast setup and teardown can be accomplished. Our pallets and crates were delivered to our stall the day before the show and the staff was rolling out the carpets that evening. We were ready to rock in about 12 hours from crate delivery to Showtime and visa versa.

You may not have realized it but you walked by the owner of the big yellow service truck (Aaron Morgan) when you were checking out the blue Peterbuilt at the Stellar booth. He was checking out the truck at the same time. 10:50. He is the guy with the beard looking in the first cabinet on the drivers side. Aaron is an incredibly talented and hard worker. 👍👍👍👍

Nice picks of the Hoover dam going to Vegas. Thanks for the fantastic pictures and cool stuff at the expo and Chris from Let's Dig 👍😊

I worked at an RV dealership and we used to do trade shows. Usually in the winter and early spring just to bring out the new models of motor homes and travel trailers. The idea is exposure and to create interest. Usually, we'd get a couple/few sales but a couple of months later is when the people at the shows come into the showroom to make a deal.

10:45 Man that Peterbilt is a beautiful truck!!

Had a wonderful armchair walk about at Conexpo here in Windhoek. Thanks for taking me with!

19:17 MIKE ROWE!!! MY name is Matt Creek, and this is my machine! Matt’s Explore the USA looking for people who aren’t afraid to use big rigs, fix machines, Trucks, & Digger machines… Hard working men & women who earn an honest living… doing the kinds of jobs that make civilized life possible for the rest of us. Matt: Now get ready, to get dirty & operate this machine!

Thay Blue Peterbuilt .. Wow! I doubt I could afford the wax to polish that rig! Con Expo is insane! Thanks for sharing 🇨🇦

1924 Kenworth has year round A/C. Thanks for the trip to Con-Expo. Through you I got to see it.

One thing about these expos and auctions is all the big tummies walking round... Makes me feel right at home. Thanks once more for a very informative video.

Matt when I used to run the road and do super heavy haul that was one of our big things hauling into the ConExpo we would start 2 months early and bring stuff from all over the country into that big convention then all the drivers they would park over at another lot with her trailers waiting until the expo was over because a lot of people bought the equipment that was there and we would go in and load it back up and haul it to wherever they needed to go and I've been to that many times thank you for sharing because it brings back a lot of great memories

KY Gambler, do you really believe it is wrong for me to voice my concern about a potential hazard to our water supply. This is not a joke or bad feeling toward Matt. Been watching him for years. Accidents do happen and fuel, fluids, freeze and oils from the shop will end up in the creek. Just asking him to properly capture the floor drain. Matt has a bunch of old equipment, they all leak. We should all be concerned about clean water.

Showing some of the flight there was cool. Thanks. I'm jealous wish I could have been there but we have Matt bringing it to us.

Thanks so very much for filming the expo and mountain and Vages lol😊

Las Vegas local 720. We set up and take down these shows. Got the opportunity to rigg Bobcat, Vermeer, John Deere, bomag and komatsu. So much stuff to look at. Equipment has become so high tech and expensive, only huge corporations can afford this stuff. Hope you enjoyed your stay and us convention workers exceeded your expectations.

Thanks for bringing us all along, Matt!

Whoaaa sweet shot of the Hoover Dam coming into Vegas!

3/25/23; ...wow! ConExpo Huge event! Thx Matt for nice tour! Appreciate your mostly quiet video tour...too much to take-in on channel video, but much appreciate all your video & editing. Stay safe & carry on!🔧⚙️💪👏✅️🍺😊

Going on what I have seen from others and yourself it is sure a spectacle to see. Thanks for sharing your views on ConExpo bro and hope your wife enjoyed it as well. Safe travels

Quite a culture shock going from video of Conexpo back to your stomping grounds. Like fantasy meets reality. We love your reality, Matt.

Crazy equipment Awesome content

Oh what memories. I spent 30 years in the fluid power industry, and attended many Con-Expos, and world of concrete. thanks for the show.

Mike Row! I used to watch his show Dirty Jobs. I think he has a new Dirty Jobs show on now. AWESOME SHOW! Thanks for the sneak peak of the goodies at the show.👍

When i heard eva in the background saying why'd you take these stairs, i laughed, made me think of when she said, you're setting me up for failure lol. Eva, you should be in another video, you guy's are to funny. Been waiting for a video matt, i was glad to get this early morning video. G-d bless.

Great video Matt!! 😊👍🏼 I can’t believe how big that setup was. Loved seeing you guys!

I can still remember the 1975 Con Expo I went to as it was held in Chicago back then. One thing for sure, after a day of looking at all those fabulous machines my feet were screaming at me LOL. I'd sure like to go to the next one though,.. if only! So I can fully understand your excitement at this one Matt!

Great video Matt. that place look huge. A lot of very nice stuff there.

Hey Matt, it was great to meet you out there. I know I was lucky to catch up with you before the rain came. I too spend 3 days walking all corners of that show and still didn’t see most of it. They seem to get bigger and bigger every time! Keep up the great work. Dan

Wow, that was fun, a change of pace for sure. Can't quite get my head around how big that show is, crazy !!

Thanks for the video Matt, glad you enjoyed yourself you deserve it, thanks for sharing this. Take care of yourself and family and be Blessed ❤️❤️👍.

I want to go to and probably will when it comes back. It's great to see all you guys hanging out. I definitely enjoy the videos

Thanks for taking us along Matt great show!!!

Love the old trucks - so much has changed. Fantastic show of the new incoming ideas. Well done Diesel Creek - fun for all.

It’s been a dream of mine to get to that expo for many years. Thanks for sharing that with us. Very cool place pretty cool that Volvo would have you down for a meet and greet and be part of their production anyway as always thanks for bringing us along. Hope you have a great weekend.

Thanks for taking us along. That looks like one amazing show!

As a retired Chevron Lube Oil Rep I always loved this show !

Best sounds! 13:45 14:17 14:43 15:08

Thanks Matt for taking us to the show. Amazing the various types and size / I could understand the excitement and joy to walk around a see some of these machines.

Thank you for taking us with you, that was cool. Enjoying it yourself, and taking the time to let us in without a ticket...props! Really looking forward to whatever you decide to upload, I really appreciate it, thank you.

Evening Matt, thanks for taking us along, I love vintage trucks & equipment!!

You walked right by some machinery from my old company. Well not mine but I worked there. Komatsu bought out LeTourneau. In my day I was an electrician on heavy rolling machinery. We built the largest off-road machinery in the world. And we sold it all over the world. I always wanted to go to one of those expos but never did. Thanks for caring us along.

CON-EXPO was wonderful, thanks ,Matt, for taking me there❤

Love these type videos, well I love all your videos but these are special cool! Thanks there Matt! Keep on stinkin' like a Diesel!

Thanks for taking us along. Lots of fabulous equipment. Im sure a lot of us watching know all this will be affordable by the time we're 70 yrs old lol. But a joy seeing whats new non-the-less.

Great video as always Matt,A buddy of mine said Volvo's set up time for ConExpo was almost a month prior to the start of the Expo, those shows are always a good time, I make motor grader edges for Cat, Volvo, Esco, and shortly Kubota, always loved heavy equipment and would love to be able to attend ConExpo next time around in 3 years

Thank you Matt..... That tour was awesome!!!! 😊

Great video!!! Thanks for sharing the show with us!!!

At 20:10 Oh my the smile she had!

Such events are always awesome... seeing new manufacturers you never heard of, realizing that some brands you thought of as gone are actually still out there, learning about crazy machines you dien't know before and just being in this world of its own for a day or two... it's wonderful

Those old trucks, they looked fantastic, loved you showed them!

thank you matt...that place is amazing!

Thank you for going and giving video tour. YES you are absolutely RIGHT about "SIZE" of convention center and outdoor displays. It took me ONE whole day just to go through the inside of multiple floors INSIDE just Convention center. Whats so great is for example the ( Joy Stick) control system on a CAT NEW motor Grader, you can TALK to the manufacturer in one of the Booths, that design and build the system ( control Joy Sticks) for CAT graders. The amount of (Chinese) heavy equipment that is coming to us market is eye opening. And a lot of the China built machine use USA ( Cummins) engine and US made Hydraulic systems. So other than upper and lower body works. Thay are USA parts available. I just heard from another U-Tube guy ( C&C Equipment) that ( Sany) will NOT cover Warranty if even a Low hour machines is Sold at Auction. Just a FYI. He explained it better than me if you check out his video on ( Sany) not coving excavator at Auction, even though the sales brochure says WARRANTY still in effect.

That is some awesome equipment. Thank you for sharing

Awesome to see you and Chris together in your video. Thanks for the tour of the expo. Totally enjoyed it.

Wow, thanks for walking that expo! I've never seen it before.

It's awesome to see. So big. Thanks for letting us to show. Greetings from the Netherlands 🇳🇱

Thanks for sharing the show with us. I miss Vegas. I would go three or four times a year when I lived in CA, Playing blackjack at the El Cortez was my favorite activity.

Just think, these are the toys Matt will bring back to life in 20+ years. The odds are, now being 68, I will not see it. 😂

Thanks for the walk through it was great!

Love your videos mate keep up the good work

Thanks for the tour of all the new things that I can’t afford. It is amazing how much things have changed and all of the automation over the years, soon there will be electric unmanned loaders and trucks to do most of the work for us.

My neighbour has a construction company they just got back from this expo, they go to it all the time. He sent me a picture of the ASV skid steer with the brush mulching attachment since I have one too, what a beast it is. I kept looking for them in your video, but so many people, thanks for sharing.

You are a loud gum smacker! Sarcasm. Love this channel!

Hi Matt!! thanks for sharing your experience with us! I can't imagine how all that equipment is hauled to Las Vegas...every West-coast heavy haul outfit must be working to take that stuff there. Mind-boggling!!

Wow, looks like you had fun over at the EXPO. glad to see that you enjoyed yourself.

Going to ConExpo has always been a dream of mine! I intended to go this year, but, …life. So thanks for the video! Loved seeing a glimpse of it, and hopefully I can be there in 2026 to shake your hand!

Thanks for taking Us along through the Big Boy Sand Box Matt!
