For more interactive fun, Nissan has a this big spread of special Frontier Project Trucks, encouraging crowd participation to vote for your favorite!
"The one we have right here is the Project Hard Body, which is retro 80s looking with the graphics, this one is in the lead right now, but it's really close with Project Adventure, that's got the camper top, that's my favorite!" said Becky Shriver, Nissan product specialist.
Believe it or not, pick-up trucks are really popular in Chicago and the Ford Maverick is the first fully hybrid pick up on the road.

"We actually call the Maverick the truck for customers who didn't even know they needed a truck!" said Grace Karnes, Ford business specialist. "It provides all the capabilities of a pick up while still being small enough to fit in even the tightest parking spots, making it perfect for Chicago."
And if you're bringing your family to look for a family vehicle, be sure to check out the Chrysler Pacifica plug-in hybrid.
"Chrysler is the originator of the mini-van dating back to the early 80s, and it's still around and this is a totally different look from what we've seen in the mini-vans, it's a pretty sleek looking mini-van and it's just a smooth ride," said Jim OBrill, marketing director for the Chicago Auto Show.
Plus, it gets over 520 miles of range, when combining both electric and gas, which should eliminate range anxiety.
Tickets are $15 for adults, $10 for seniors aged 62 and older, $10 for children 4-12 and children 3 and under are free when accompanied by a paying adult.
