THERE IS ALWAYS SOMETHING NEW TO EXPLORE WITH YOUR FRIENDS, FAMILY AND CO-WORKERS AT AMERICA ON WHEELS

America On Wheel is housed in a new 43,000 square foot building, with 23,000 square feet of exhibit space. The concourse and main gallery exhibits tell the story of the development of over-the-road transportation, including the Mack trucks story. A smaller gallery houses a long-term education exhibit on alternative fuels and propulsion systems focusing on hybrid vehicles and the development of the hydrogen fuel cell powered vehicle. The third gallery is used for changing exhibits. The museum also includes a special event area, classroom, orientation theatre, a research library, gift shop and catering prep area.
