And like you said, you just touched on there, maybe you can expand a little bit more.
One thing I always find interesting about the show, it's a place to come see how fast the technology is changing, right? Especially with the emissions we see on the diesel vehicles.
And you said you got the green tech, maybe expand on the green tech for the show.
So it's a pavilion that section of the show where we have, you know, again, equipment, you know, technology that's helping to be more sustainable for the fleet.
And the kind of the theme for this year is like becoming more, you know, reducing carbon footprint, but at the same time, lowering operating costs.
So beside meeting some suppliers and we have new players coming to the show, for example, Tesla is going to be there with their new products.
the new truck, you know, and other companies, we're going to have a green tech conference and with different topics that, again, we're going to address what, you know, fleets are probably experiencing or trying to move in that direction.

And with your attending badge, you can attend, you know, there's no cost, you know, to attend those conferences.
So, you know, you can still, you know, meet your suppliers, your exhibitors and walk the show.
But if, you know, if you're interested as well with those conferences, like I said, you can attend and it's not like in a separate room.
We want to keep people on the show floor the maximum of the time during the three days of the show.
