**As soon as the garage open each day, enthusiast headed to the Stereo King booth.**

The UTV category is very strong for Stereo King day-in and day-out at their 5 locations. The Stereo King crew of 9 was very busy at the 2026 UTV Takeover and had strong sales and installations of Rockford Fosgate Stage Kits and more. Early during the event the installation area was expanded.

Stereo King Team members on site with Kevin Cornutt included 5 sales team members along with Corey Osterhoudt, Luke McBride and Brad Smith handling all the action in the install bays.

**Each day project vehicles stopped at the Stereo King booth.**

**Installations took place through the day and into the evening lights each day of the show**

“During the 5-day event run we did a ton of promoting with business cards, fliers, free stickers, shirts caps and more. We spent time with well over 1000 people in our booth and saw a lot of customers from previous years which is always great to see. We offered onsite installation and worked under the lights into the night to complete jobs. It was a strong mix of Can Ams, RZRs and RZR PRO’s that came through and were decked with Rockford Fosgate Stage Kits which were the biggest hits. We blew sales away plus we set some jobs back at the stores” Cornutt related.

**Rockford Fosgate Stage Kits were stacked in the installation tents.**

Smoky the Bear stopped by to see Kevin Cornutt at last year‘s event. “Smoky the Bear came by this year, but I did not get an image. I did play the old Smoky the Bear song when he came by the Jeep. And when the sheriffs came by, I played ‘bad boys bad boys’ and they got such a kick out of that. All of the patrons were definitely laughing.

Concluding “Our first booth at The UTV Takeover was a 10X10. Now 10 years later our booth was 20×80 with extra installation area and a 9 member team. We saw more enthusiasts from Utah this year. This year we also had customers from previous years doing upgrades. The loaded Jeep Gladiator continues to set the bar for Loud Bass and we ran out of Air Horns with 2 show days left. This was a very successful event and we can’t wait to do it again in August at Winchester!”
