Trick My Truck - my dad won a truck!

Over the weekend, my dad was the lucky winner of a truck that was custom made by Chrome Shop Mafia. They have a show on CMT called "Trick My Truck". It's kind of like Pimp My Ride, except they are not retarded and it's for semi's.

Here are a few pictures. The organizers are working on a photo album for my parents with more pictures of everything. That truck is easily worth $200,000. I'm going to talk my dad into having the truck outside for our reception so everyone can see it!!

The truck:

Hey, I have my 240 still. I wouldn't sell it! :P The car is good though. Nothing new done to it or anything, but it's still being good to me.

And my dad is a truck driver. He has his own truck and this truck he just won is going to be kept as a show truck, of course. lol

Must be nice to be able to win one of those contests haha.

Now he can haul your 240 around from event to event in it's own trailer. Lucky!
