Pros Picks

[Bob Johnson]

Couldn't agree with you more. I talked to Steve Legens Saturday night at Columbus and he said they had not qualified for the truck of the year early. He said at Nashville the Goodguys Representatives came over and strongly suggested that he pull the truck over to the trick truck corral because they were going to pick a finalist for truck of the year early. So he took it over there thinking alright I just might get the pick and low and behold they gave it cool commercial and gave the finalist pick to the Stude. Don't know what the deal is there. Steve and his crew are some of the nicest guys around, I can't imagine that they have upset someone to the point that they have been black balled. Who knows?

How many other shows have a finalist pick? If he doesn't win it it will be as big a FU as when the 67 Blazer PU of mine that was started by Lil John and worked on by Boyd and finished by Alan Johnson lost to a $25K 71 Silver Chevy pick up in Dallas a few years ago. I wonder if the Goodguys people know that the truck hasn't qualified? I know Legens and the owner have put their heart and soul into that truck..I really feel for them..and unfortunately I know the feeling very well..
