INDIANAPOLIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar 16, 2026--

Custom Truck One Source, Inc. (NYSE: CTOS), a leading provider of specialized truck and heavy equipment solutions, unveiled its latest Load King Manufacturing innovations last week at The Work Truck Show 2026 in Indianapolis. Drawing strong booth traffic and industry attention, the Company highlighted new offerings designed to meet the evolving needs of field service and utility professionals: the Load King Voyager ® AMX+, the Voyager ® AMX, and the Load King Outback 28SC-30.

Advancing Service Truck Performance with the Voyager ® AMX+

Building on the success of the Voyager ® AMX platform introduced in 2025, Custom Truck introduced the Voyager ® AMX+ to the event’s audience, marking the industry’s first look at the new 14-foot configuration.

Engineered for strength, efficiency, and real-world jobsite performance, the Voyager ® AMX+ delivers a powerful combination of lightweight aluminum construction and enhanced capability. Designed with field service teams in mind, the unit provides the durability and functionality required to support demanding daily operations while improving payload efficiency and mobility.

The Voyager ® AMX+ is equipped with a 12,000-lb capacity crane with a 30-foot reach, delivering the lifting power needed for a wide range of service applications. An integrated air and power system further enhances jobsite productivity, allowing crews to operate efficiently without the need for additional equipment.

With a corrosion-resistant aluminum body, advanced storage solutions, integrated lighting, and electronic locking systems, the Voyager ® AMX+ represents the next step forward in service truck design by combining rugged performance with smart, operator-focused features.

Custom Truck also displayed the original 11-foot body Voyager ® AMX, which continues to gain traction in the market following its debut at Utility Expo 2025, offering a proven, lightweight solution for service fleets seeking reliability and efficiency.

Expanding Access and Capability with the Outback 28SC-30

Also drawing significant attention was the Load King Outback 28SC-30, the newest addition to Load King’s tracked easement equipment line. Designed for off-road and hard-to-reach environments, the Outback series addresses a critical need for equipment that can safely and efficiently operate in tight or sensitive jobsite conditions.

The 28SC-30 model introduces a full lithium battery electric PTO, delivering low-noise operation and reducing environmental impact, an increasingly important factor for utility and infrastructure projects.

Built with accessibility and safety at the forefront, the unit features a compact outrigger footprint and ultra-narrow profile, enabling crews to maneuver through confined spaces such as substations or restricted easements. Its ability to transport and position heavy components in tight areas makes it a valuable solution for utility contractors working in challenging environments.

Driving Innovation Through Integrated Solutions

“The response at The Work Truck Show reinforces our commitment to delivering equipment that solves real challenges for our customers,” said John Bernard, Service Truck Product Manager for Custom Truck. “Through Load King, we’re able to bring innovative, purpose-built solutions to market, all backed by Custom Truck’s full lifecycle support, from acquisition to service and beyond.”

Custom Truck One Source continues to differentiate itself through its integrated “single-source” model, offering equipment sales, rentals, aftermarket parts and service, financing, and asset disposal solutions across a wide range of industries.
