So, In other words, these trucks are Monstrous! Theres a lot of things that I didnt know about Monster Trucks until I learned about the Monster Jam. I found out that Steel body full-size cars are the vehicles typically crushed during a monster truck event. The Cars, as well as vans, buses, motor homes, airplanes and ambulances, are attained from local junkyards and returned after each event. They crush an average of 3000 cars a year! Can you believe that?!How can you get tickets for this event?
