Just received our Expedite Now Magazine with Tom and Tina on the cover! Article by Sandy Long about them winning the Drivers Choice Award at the Expedite Expo in 2012.

I agree with Tom having drivers pick your truck which is a 2005 with 750,000 miles on it is an awesome honor.

I enjoyed reading how you have improved on the Double AA sleeper and how you maintain the truck. As I have told you more then once the color and murals on the outside of your truck make it outstanding!

Great Job to you and to Load 1 for having you in the booth.

It is really a statement when a true working truck wins vs a dealer truck in my opinion.

Many years ago, when i met them for the first time in Denver, that truck was not so nice. just one more truck. i was stunned to see what they made it to be.
Chrome Shop mafia is a joke!

It's really wonderful to see a truck win because it's been loved and cared for, rather than because it's got all the bells & whistles [and they're all chromed!].
Love and work mean more than splashing money about - and Tom & Tina absolutely deserved to win.
:D

Very nice truck. I could never see myself spending that type of money to pimp my truck out. Not because it doesn't look good but I would rather spend the money else where or God forbid save it. I do enjoy looking at trucks that are custom made.

trying to figure out what type of money you think we spent. very little money has been spent. the only extras that we put on the truck were the graphics, 1/4 fenders [ which we bought used for 50 bucks ] the lights on the box and the nut covers. pretty much everything else came on the truck. i would guess over, well 8 yrs. come feb. we have maybe spent 1500 $. dont take us wrong, just seemed you thought we had spent 1000's. what we have spent is alot of time keeping up with the aging process and trying to slow it down. we dont intend to buy another truck for us to drive. they have just gotten to pricey compared to what we payed for this one and our money is better spent taking care of this one and rebuilding when the time comes.

It looks awesome Tom. If I'd been at the Expo you'd have had my vote. One of these days we'll cross paths and I'll get to see it up close. Make sure you have it lookin' good!

What ever you have been doing continue to do so because the truck looks like it just came off the showroom floor.

I am in the same boat as you in regards to buying another truck. I decided to keep mine rolling until the bitter end. Pricey is an understatement when describing the cost of a new truck.
