In spite of having a HUGE footprint at SEMA and for as long as Cindy and I have been covering the show, there are 3 really BIG names that will not be present at the 2022 show. And, those names are GM, Ford and Honda. Not gonna lie, this news is stunning and I can't even imagine what the show will be like without them. Instead of the big blue wall and massive presence outside in Silver Lot that Ford had, there will now be Toyota and eBay Motors. And, where GM once dominated Central Hall, will now be Dodge. It is my understanding that VW will be coming back to the show as well and after a long hiatus.
Not 100% sure what's going on but I do think that 2020 and the virus shutdowns played a big roll in this. As some of you may recall, SEMA was forced to go "virtual" and now, that's exactly what companies like Ford are planning to do this year. Do online reveals. And, I get it but... I have to say it really sucks.
