The Christmas Truck was the results of one man’s sudden inspiration. Kris Marshall was hauling a generator and a few strands of Christmas lights to his church in a $50 used truck. He simply combined the two and The Christmas Truck was born.
It’s amazingly nontechnical, it’s literally just lights taped to a truck. According to Marshall “It’s not very scientific, it’s a hideous site in the daylight, there’s black tape and wires in the daytime.” But at night it’s amazing. Marshall has used eight trucks and added dozens of strand since, though it’s always a 2WD Chevy/GMC with a regular cab and eight-foot truck bed “the way a truck ought to look.”
Santa’s Sleigh is now upgraded, Poor Rudolph is thrown on scrapheap.
Deck the hauls.
Hello Onstar? I’m in a light duty Chevy and I’m completely stranded. I think it’s a bulb erring.
Could you imagine following this guy down the road with his blinkers on?
he might be a red neck, hope he takes them down after Christmas
What a perfect getaway vehicle. Just turn off the Christmas lights after leaving the scene.
