Scenes from Mid America

Well, it's been raining here in Louisville -- and that doesn't do wonders for the photo-taking opportunities, let me tell you. But the "liquid sunshine" pouring from the sky didn't damper the festive spirit of the show, I can tell you. Here's a few moments captured (so far) from the truck show -- including the winners of the 2007 "Fleet of the Year" awards, who receive their awards at a special (and very tasty) dinner here in Louisville.

FleetOwner's 2007 Fleet of the Year awards dinner in Louisville, KY, is always a special treat for everyone.

The 'Megasaurus' car-killing 'transformer' truck -- a favorite guest at tractor-pulls -- gets hauled around by it's very own tractor-trailer -- which sports an appropriate logo.

I think this motto -- courtesy of G-2000 Inc. out of Toledo, OH -- says it all.

Sharp trucks abound at Mid America -- and 'The Gambler' is one of the sharpest of them all.

And it goes without saying that it's not just the trucks that are beautiful at Mid America ...
