Wow, now that's a way to get attention! No, it's not the biggest or anything like that, but it's a lot of fun just the same. This is the monster truck for
Eddie's Bar And Grill, in Dunedin, Florida. I spotted it driving by late last night and had to stop for pics.
I met the manager and driver, Matt, and he was really cool about showing me the goods. It turns out it has a smoke machine with multiple nozzles. You can see some, because he was nice enough to come out and turn them on for me. But the wind kept blowing it away, so it's not totally awesome like it is usually. This thing also has a FLAME THROWER nozzle up front, in the mouth of the skull! Yeah, but I didn't get to see that last night. I asked him how it works in traffic, and we both just chuckled.
I look forward to stopping by in the daylight soon to get some more pics of this beast, and hopefully I will remember to ask lots more questions about it. He did tell me that before it morphed into a monster truck, this was a 1990 Chevy Silverado 1500. Yeah, well it ain't anymore! :O
