SAE September 2025 Event

In 1915, William Besserdich and Bernhard Mosling patented their innovative four-wheel drive system. Unable to find a buyer for their design, they endeavored to realize its promise themselves. That marked the start of Oshkosh Corporation — and set the tone for the next century.

Today, Oshkosh continues to dream, discover and develop new and improved ways to make a difference in people’s lives around the world.

Please consider joining us at Oshkosh for a dinner and vehicle showcase.
