Power, Style, and Smoke on the Shore

Atlantic City Truck Meet 2025 roared into Bader Field on June 7 and 8, bringing with it two days of horsepower, custom builds, and nonstop action. Set against the backdrop of Atlantic City’s boardwalk and casinos, the event drew thousands of enthusiasts from across the Northeast to celebrate lifted, lowered, and diesel-powered rigs in one of the region’s most unique venues.

This year, the weather set the tone early. While gray skies loomed over the boardwalk and the breeze off the coast kept the temperatures cool, the action on the showgrounds was nothing short of hot. The gloomy conditions proved a blessing in disguise, keeping the 22,000 spectators comfortable while the trucks did all the heavy lifting—literally and figuratively.

The heart of the show was the massive display of trucks, housing 4,100 registered trucks, from towering lifted builds on polished forged wheels to meticulously detailed street trucks laid out on the pavement. Vendors lined the field showcasing the latest performance products, accessories, and custom work, while fans circled through rows of rigs snapping photos and swapping ideas.

One of the biggest draws of the weekend was the Blessed Performance dyno competition, which kept a constant crowd gathered around the rollers. Competitors pushed their diesels to the limit, laying down serious horsepower numbers and shaking the ground with raw torque. The dyno wasn’t just about numbers—it was a showcase of bragging rights, tuning prowess, and the relentless pursuit of power that defines the diesel community.

Adding to the excitement was the burnout pit, where clouds of smoke and the smell of burning rubber filled the air. The always-popular bikini contest gave fans a lively break from the thundering engines. For those more interested in polished chrome and paint than tire smoke, the show-n-shine competition delivered a stunning array of craftsmanship and creativity.

Now in just its fifth year, the Atlantic City Truck Meet has quickly grown into one of the premier gatherings on the East Coast. With its unbeatable mix of show, competition, and community, the 2025 edition proved once again that this meet isn’t just about trucks—it’s about culture, camaraderie, and the shared passion that drives the diesel and truck scene forward.
