    He should have to give it to someone.In 2010 the contest rules state that you can't own a truck. He owned this outright and was running it everyday. I guess it just shows that all those contest are fixed. I talked to this guy and he said he was under a load when they called him.Arrow truck sales claim that they check out the stories. I just found it amussing that they claimed this guy was having such a hard time. If you can't make it with a truck thats paid for,hows it going to be any different with another one ? Oh,he's going to sell the old one.:yes2557:

    thats the same as chrome shop mafia show---they take somebody who has run their truck into the ground-- then they make it look stupid and usually impractical--and then expect the drivers world to turn around--
    i wish they would revisit these people who get a new house on extreme home makeover--after a year--i bet the new house looks pretty much destroyed--like the original one did

    I think a lot of those CSM trucks were friends or customers or at least some of them were. Thank God I wasn't in bad shape and my wife didn't send a video in to CSM I couldn't stand to have a train set or a waterfall in my sleeper.
