TruckGuysTV started in 2006 as the result of a meeting between TV producer Ed Blomeley and fleet owner/custom truck builder Phil Langevin. Phil had embarked on building a custom rig destined for the 2007 Big Rig Build Off at the MATS in Louisville, his fourth entry in that competition, and he was looking for a way to document the build. Ed thought that it might make some good TV, so he agreed to build a show around the project.

What began as coverage of a single truck being built has grown into the internet's premiere custom truck site. Since 2006, we've covered shows, interviewed truckers, produced how-to clips and met hundreds of the great folks that are involved with trucks and trucking.

We now have hundreds of trucks on our site, hours of truck building and dozens of interviews and features. We've got friends helping us, such as Phil, but also the Chrome Shop Mafia's Bryan Martin and Gailand Johston doing interviews for us, folks in Australia and Europe willing to give us a hand and our friends at Sirius/XM's Road Dog Radio giving us some buzz.

TruckGuysTV has become the site we had imagined way back in 2006, but now we are imagining so much more. Webcams in shops, a world-wide truck build, more show coverage, the world's largest database of custom truck video. Come on in a look around!

About Ridin' High: Building the 369

Ridin' High: Building the 369 is the story of a man and his stainless steel dream.

The man is Phil Langevin; a trucker, a fleet owner, and custom big rig visionary. The dream is the 369; a gleaming blend of old and new, of classic style and today's technology.

Helped by his friends and family, Phil sets out to win the most challenging prize in custom trucking: the Big Rig Build Off. If the challenge of building a truck from the ground up in 210 days isn't enough, Phil makes it tougher by choosing to combine a vintage 1979 359 Peterbilt cab with a completely custom hood, attach that to a 379 Unibilt bunk, clad the entire thing in polished stainless steel, and drop it onto a stretched 2005 379 frame!

More than an overview, Ridin' High draws on hundreds of hours of in depth coverage of the truck build, and puts it all together into a 26 episode online series that lets you follow the truck from the germination of the idea through to the eventual outcome of the Mid America Trucking Show's Big Rig Build Off.
