I know I should lop off a pine tree to go in the back but… I’m surrounded by “Red Christmas Truck” merchandise and have mine (parked in a shed for winter admittedly) just begging for some Christmas attention herself.

Must be some other Christmas trucks on here!

Our truck is in the Christmas greeting at left. Mongo added Santa and the door logo. Here's a couple more photos from back in the day when Stovebolt HQ was also a choose and cut Christmas tree farm. One weekend was always the "Stovebolt Weekend" The customers loved seeing the trucks.

Thanks RLB & Gdads; looking good both. Gdads yours has the same level of shine as mine - could have been painted from the same can. Love it

I was going to decorate it but it was 84 degrees outside so I just stayed inside with the AC on.
