Actually Logan.. you'd be surprised how many of even the top level Show trucks of that size are working trucks too. I've had the opportunity to go past the KY Fair and Expo Center a couple of day before the Mid-American Truck Show.. and you wouldn't believe all the rigs in the lots, and owners all over them. Cleaning, shining, touching up paint!!! It's amazing the work they go through just to let the truck sit for 3 or 4 days in a show!!


BTW that is a very nice looking truck!!!

That is a nice truck. Most big truck shows the truck has to work to be eligble to show. Has anyone else noticed more and more trucks goin back to the vintage look?? I wish I had a camera yesterday when I seen an awesome looking new truck that had done up to look like an old truck.

The trend in custom trucks right now is a "Gangster" look. Long, Low, Wide. Flat top sleepers are big time in... so are lowered seats.. lowered suspensions... everything hugs the tires or the ground. Also a trend toward, clean and simple. Monochrome paint jobs, blended body lines. Not a lot of chrome or flash...

Should we thank the Chrome Shop Mafia for re-creating that look and making it popular again?
That is a nice looking truck- I see a few on the road, not done quite as nice, but are getting nicer. Its nice to see them taking pride in their rides again!
