Pride & Polish: The Owners

It takes more than money or a good wash to produce trucks that keep bringing home trophies. Overdrive looks at what drives the owner-operators who have consistently won awards during 15 years of Pride & Polish, and how their showpieces reflect their personal lives.

FOR THE LOVE OF THE GAME
Pride & Polish veterans work hard to make competing look easy, but it pays off in more than glory and trophies.

ART AND SOUL
Elaborate murals open windows into the hearts of show truck owners.

TWO TO TANGO
Couples who work together on their show trucks find that teamwork leads to closer relationships and award-winning trucks.

A LITTLE SOMETHING EXTRA
Not content with pristine paint jobs and gleaming chrome, these Pride & Polish enthusiasts add personality with a decorator’s touch.
