    Not sure about the trucks themselves, but I have seen the truck they give them as a "loaner". If i remember right, one of them sits at a Volvo dealership on hwy 281, in Pharr, TX. just before hwy 83.

    I've seen the loaner truck pulling an empty skateboard as I travelled west on I-80 in PA last summer, pretty sure the driver was Greg Baize. Twice I have seen Richard Crowder's "Higher Power," the Freightliner with the Church Pipe exhaust stacks. Looked pretty neat.

    Saw "Free Spirit" at a truck show last Summer at the 49er Truck Stop in Sacramento, CA.

    Also saw "Ice Breaker" running in Florida last Summer, he blew by me on a freeway outside of Orlando.

    Lots of times, I see trucks at night, thinking that they came from that show. Then all of a sudden, I think, nevermind, it's just a cowtruck. 8) :P

    I saw "Road Hog" at the Fry's warehouse about a month back. Looks like he changed back from the dual side pipes to regular stacks. :?

    My wife was watching "Karaoke Dokie" on CMTV last night and then the next show came on, witch was Trick My Truck. She didn't know what the premise of the show was and while I was trying to explain it to her they were showing previews of the upcoming episode. Anyway, they were talking to this older guy who goes around honoring veterans and they said, "We are going to trick your truck!" And they older guy goes, "You are going to do what to my truck?" That still makes me giggle. :wink: :shock:

    Not sure if this counts as Trick my truck...

    but I have seen some 18 wheeler's with those Annoying spinning hub cap things. You know the one's not sure if you have seen them on those SUV cars. But on a semi. It's different, yeah that's all I have to say on that. :shock:

    Yeah, I saw it last night. They had a cow hauler's 379. It was painted as a Texas flag. The driver was getting ticked about the guys coming to take his truck
    They gave him a Ryder freightshaker as a loner. :P

    My brother saw one a few months ago in VA, forget which one though, I have yet to see one. Got to love that old man honoring the vets though. Cool stuff even if it was a 17 wheeler as Rhyno pointed out.

    I admire The Chrome Shop Mafia on what they do on Trick My Truck by helping truckers who have had a bad break or two. But it seems sometimes they kinda go over the top with their customizing and stuff. 8)
