Country singer-songwriter Toby Keith will headline the show and the Reverend Horton Heat, Social Distortion and the Eli Young Band are among acts scheduled to perform. The 4×4 and off-road crowd has an affinity for Keith from his starring roles in Ford truck commercials and his penchant for driving Ford trucks.
