Today’s episode covers upcoming truck shows, preparations for heading out early Friday morning, and getting everything loaded up for the weekend ahead.

Rich talks about skipping the live show this morning while making preparations for the Rat Pack Car Show in Gail, Texas, hosted by Dale Turnbow, David Molina, and the Rat Pack Car Club. The event is expected to bring together an incredible lineup of classic rides, truck enthusiasts, and Rat Pack members from across Texas.

One of the things Rich looks forward to most is shooting photography around the old-school backdrops and scenery in Gail, creating that gritty vintage look that fits perfectly with classic trucks, hot rods, and custom builds. C10 America will be on-site shooting photography, capturing content for future magazine features, creating metal prints, and covering the event throughout the weekend.

Listeners interested in booking a professional truck or car photo shoot during the event can reach out directly. For this weekend only, Rich is offering a special flat-rate blowout deal of $199 for a full professional photo session at the Rat Pack show.

What’s Included in the $199 Weekend Special:
Approximately 50 professional shots of your truck or car
You choose the background and shooting location
Full color correction included
You select the 25 best photos from the shoot
All selected images delivered as high-quality JPEGs
You also choose 2 images to receive full high-definition editing and delivery
All images delivered on a flash drive due to the large file sizes and image quality

Rich also explains that all delivered images will include a C10 America copyright watermark/logo. For customers wanting watermark-free versions of selected images, there is a $25 fee per image to remove the visible copyright logo. However, C10 America and Rich Arthur Photography still retain the full copyright ownership and rights to all photographs. Customers are being granted permission to use the images personally and for promotion of their vehicles.

The episode also covers professional editing policies moving forward. If there’s something in the background of a photo that needs to be removed — such as another vehicle, object, distraction, or obstruction — those edits are not included unless discussed beforehand. Background removal and reconstruction work now carries a $50 per hour editing fee, which includes object removal and rebuilding or repairing the affected background areas.

Rich explains that editing work takes time and attention to detail, and after years of doing extensive edits for free, it’s important to properly value the time and craftsmanship involved in professional image retouching.

The episode also celebrates another huge milestone for the community after officially reaching 86,000 members inside the C10 America Facebook group just two days ago. Rich thanks everybody who continues supporting the brand, sharing the content, listening to the podcast, promoting the products, and helping spread the word across Facebook, TikTok, Instagram, and beyond.

Listeners are reminded that subscriptions to the C10 America Magazine are just $10 per year, and active C10 America Facebook group members can subscribe for only $5 per year by contacting the team directly.

Rich also talks about future opportunities for advertisers, sponsors, and guests who would like to appear on the podcast, with upcoming interviews already being lined up — including Joe Coddington and more builders and creators from the truck community.

If you'd like to support C10 America, you can do so by sharing the content, supporting the products and metal prints, subscribing to the magazine, booking a shoot, or simply helping spread the message behind this blue-collar, faith-driven truck community.
