There is one truck I see that is especially cool to me. This truck was featured in a music video by Leland Martin. He sings alot of trucking type songs. The video was filmed at the Walcott truck stop. The title of the song is "Working Class"

That's pretty interesting. I thought Colin Stuart, the owner of that Peterbilt 359, had one of the nicest trucks at the show. He was offering a cab ride to anyone who bought ten rolls of raffle tickets - the money going to the Special Olympics. So it was for a great cause, and he was a stand up guy. I almost wanted to buy the tickets just to get a ride in his truck, but the parade didn't start until 9pm, and I had a 2 hour drive home, so I passed. Would have been cool. His truck being a twin stick and all.
