Monster Truck GIFT In Utah: What It Would Cost

A Full Size Monster Truck Would Make Quit the Christmas Gift

Here's a gift that might make you the hero of your car obsessed child. It would also be a lot fun to drive and maybe you could enter it in shows. Picture a monster truck with giant tires and your name written in cursive under the driver's window.

Monster trucks are as American as it gets with their huge gas guzzling engines with sponsors plastered all over the outside. Instead of getting tickets for the next show featuring Bigfoot, maybe make your own.

Referring to Monster Truck shows, one person on Reddit said, “They’ll sell me the whole seat, but I’ll only need the edge.” Without any explanation, we know this refers to a screaming announcer with revving engines in the background. 

You can’t visit the toy aisle in Walmart without finding a couple of trucks with big tires and when you say, “Grave Digger”, nobody is thinking of some dude with a shovel late at night. Monster trucks are sunk deep in our national psyche. 

What Does It Take to Build a Monster Truck? 

You can’t go to a dealer and purchase one of these car smashing vehicles. It is something you build and this guy, Anthony Alaniz, describes a guy in Canada who pinched his pennies, did most the work himself, and it still cost him $100,000. 

Suspension, giant tires and alcohol fed engine aren't cheap. Don’t let it slow you down though. If you have a dream, you should pursue it. Especially if that dream creates a bond between you and future Americans, like your kids.
