You guys should see what he’s building now! A twin turbo lambo powered rear engine Range Rover Dakar inspired truck. Can’t wait to see that on the channel when it’s done

[@beinghappy1312]

This is some of the coolest looking driving footage. It's like a monster truck that you're actually allowed to drive on the road and be very intimidating. Seeing one of these roll down the road looks way cooler to me than a nicely done muscle car. Trophy trucks usually don't have such a nice looking body

[@AutotopiaLA]

Such an incredibly cool build and he can drive it!

Dude this guy is as insane as his build lol. Holy shit i was amped the whole time and wasnt even present. What a bad ass truck. If i had a truck like that i would make some insanely bad decisions.

[@mrmoss149]

This guy is INTENSE. Wow. Incredible build. Wow.

[@TimBrooks-ou8iw]

Fabrication at its finest! Had a close friend who was a Vietnam vet and a quadriplegic. He owned a 1970 f100 that was built as a street-legal drag truck. We would strap him in his specially equipped truck and then he would lay $100 bill on the dash and if you could grab it when he hit first gear, it was yours. Well, I never got near it!!

[@anthonysmalawipredators8794]

Something about an old school body of these style trucks gets me so hyped up. They look so cool literally flying through the desert! Morgan is an artist

[@samc9007]

If Morgan worked for the cartel, every load would make it across the border.

[@13_13k]

Being from LA, and being a car guy, I've always had an internal battle over my love of street rods, drag racing, and track racing and my love for off road racing, rock crawling, dune buggies, rails and Trophy trucks. I want them all. I was fortunate as a very young kid starting around age five(1970), that one of my dad's best friends raced the Baja 1000, Patker 500, Mint 500, and all the other races and our two families would drive from LA out into the desert and we'd camp and ride dirt bikes for a couple of days while the race was going on. Racers like Steve McQueen, Mickey Thompson, James Garner, Parnelli Jones, and many others. In those days there was no pre runners, no helicopters, no team crews, it was a driver and a navigator. You carried some spare parts and there were very few people who lived in those areas. If a driver broke down there was no help unless a local happened to live nearby but they were so poor that all they could offer was a pair of hands. Our parents would go down to La Paz every Christmas and bring toys and clothes and food to a couple of families that had helped get Randy's baja bug back in the race and gave them water and a little food when they were broken down in the races. It was so different back then. When I watch what those races have become it is mind blowing. That's why I still want to build a desert racer for King of the Hammer. You get to do trophy truck and rock crawling in one race. I've done the Rubicon trail in a bad ass Jeep and I've done some fast desert running, and I've street raced muscle cars had dirt bikes and street bikes. I'm ready to build something, not sure what though.

[@uglyass9084]

Sounds like a great time Kenneth, I imagine California is unreal

[@slynn5138]

King Of The Hammers is the best 2 weeks any car enthusiasts could imagine. It’s unlike anything else, as a fan you get to meet all of the drivers and everyone there is super passionate about the vehicle they brought. Most racers have personally done the design and fabrication of them and are always willing to discuss their ideas with you.

[@13_13k]

@@uglyass9084 ---- California in general for its geological characteristics, is an amazing place considering we have just about every type of climate and terrain anyone could want. But, I've lived in NorCal for 17 years, moved there at 30yrs old and then moved back to LA because as beautiful as NorCal is, the people are cool but it's completely different than SoCal. SoCal is the home of hot rodding, skateboarding, surfing, dirt bikes, off road racing, sand racing, drag boats, etc... and I grew up around, literally in my neighborhood, famous speed shops for parts like Headman Headers, Iskendarian Cams, Gulstrand racing, Vasek Polak Porsche racing, Paisano Brothers top fuel funnycar racing owner Joe Paisano lived 2 blocks over from my house, my sister and his daughter were friends, Halibrand Racing wheels owner lived a few blocks away and are family friends and so many others. As a kid growing up and then as a teenager and in my later years myself and my friends took advantage, in a good way, of everything we could towards whatever hobby we were doing, which was everything from sports, baseball, football, soccer, surfing, skateboarding, golfing, snow skiing, water skiing, cars, motorcycles both dirt and street, boats, that's what SoCal is and has to offer. Anything you want for recreation and the best of the best can be found here. Like deep sea fishing or big game fishing, one of the biggest names in top of the line lures for Marlin, Tuna, Sail fish, etc... is a shop called Melton International and the Meltons are my family. I've also lived in Hawai'i and that is a great place but I get island fever and need to be back on mainland. In SoCal I have multiple times gone snow skiing in the morning til noon and drove back home to where I live a mile from the beach and gone surfing that afternoon. Sometimes you can be at the beach 80°F and look East and see snow capped mountains in the winter only a two hour drive away. It is paradise except the politicians who are destroying the state are making it too expensive, too much crime, bad infrastructure, making it almost impossible to run a small business like I do. But, the whole country is that way thanks to both Democrats and Republicans that hate us and hate our country.

[@itz1av3]

Thanks for explaining Pre-runner vs. Trophy truck I never realized they were different parts of the same team

[@maddogchad77]

They also have Trick Trucks its a 4X4 trophy truck for the silt beds etc.

[@slynn5138]

⁠@@maddogchad77Wrong! There is absolutely no difference between a Trophy Truck and a Trick Truck. The names are synonymous with one another. The only reason they go by different names is because SCORE International copyrighted calling the vehicle a Trophy Truck in their organization, the other race promoters call it a Trick Truck when racing in their respective races. Also, although there are plenty of 2 wheel drive trucks still racing, none have won a race for quite a long time. Every competitive truck racing in Trophy/Trick Truck class has been 4 wheel drive for the past 2-3 years.

[@maddogchad77]

@slynn5138 news to me because I have heard the term many times in score refering to trick trucks whatever not my place to argue

[@gregchatham3890]

This trophy truck is totally badass! I can’t imagine if I were sitting in the passenger seat and feeling the raw power that this truck throws out! I live in Northeast Georgia but I’d be in SoCal in a heartbeat to ride in that truck! Thanks, Greg
