From the Ashes, We Will Rise: Nash Powersports Charges Forward with Rebuilding Efforts, Setting Sights on The Dirt Expo This December

SCOTTSDALE, AZ — October 27, 2026 — Following a devastating second-alarm warehouse fire at their Mesa location on September 6, 2026, Nash Powersports is proving that nothing can stop the "Nashty Nation". With cleanup efforts moving at a rapid pace and a clear mission underway, the Southwest’s premier off-road dealer group is officially rallying the community to support their build-back progress by visiting them at Arizona's #1 off-road show: The Dirt Expo at WestWorld of Scottsdale, running December 4th through December 6th, 2026.

The early September blaze, which broke out in the Mesa back lot after hours, resulting in zero injuries but massive structural and inventory loss, sent shockwaves through the local riding community. However, the response from Nash Powersports has been defined by extreme resilience. In just a matter of weeks, the team has turned ground zero into a hub of massive forward momentum.

"Setbacks test what a team is made of, and while the road ahead takes hard work, we are facing it head-on," said Bill Nash, owner of Nash Powersports. "Our foundation isn't made of concrete and steel—it's built on our people, our passion, and our community. The Nashty Nation has had our back since day one, and we are incredibly excited to connect with everyone in person this December."

How the Community Can Stand with Nash

While the Mesa physical showroom remains temporarily closed during construction, the dealership has pivoted to ensure local riders never miss a beat. Fans, customers, and off-road enthusiasts can actively support the Nash family and team through several direct channels:

  • Visit the Phoenix and Scottsdale Showrooms: Nash Powersports’ locations in Phoenix (1880 S 7th Ave) and Scottsdale (10781 N Frank Lloyd Wright Blvd) have stepped up to full seven-day-a-week operations, fully equipped to absorb all Mesa-area sales, parts, and accessory requests.
  • Mesa Service is Open by Appointment: In a massive victory for the rebuild timeline, the Mesa service department is officially back open by appointment only, ensuring local clients still get top-tier mechanical support.
  • Utilize Free East Valley Delivery: To make supporting them seamless, Nash is offering free delivery on all units, parts, and accessories for East Valley customers through requests placed on the official Nash Powersports Website.

The Ultimate Rallying Point: The Dirt Expo

The biggest opportunity for the community to show up in force comes this December at the 12th Annual Rugged Radios Dirt Expo, powered by DRT Motorsports. Hosted inside the climate-controlled North Hall at WestWorld of Scottsdale (16601 N Pima Rd), this massive three-day event is the perfect environment for off-road fans to check out custom builds, talk shop, and directly buy from Nash Powersports to keep their rebuilding momentum fueled. Nash Powersports will be on-site all weekend with a massive presence, showcasing top-tier vehicles, offering major holiday specials, and thanking the community that refused to let them down.

From the ashes, Nash Powersports is rising stronger, better, and more dedicated to Arizona's riding community than ever before. Come out to WestWorld this December, see the team, and help write the next chapter of the Nash story.
