Welcome to another action-packed episode of C10 America Morning Minute! We’re moving fast in the studio today, redoing the walls and getting things dialed in. The growth of our community has been absolutely unreal—we’ve officially crossed 67,900 members, which I believe makes us the fastest-growing group on the internet.

I’m talking about some of the history behind my work, including a project I did back in 2003 for Dick Clark and the Academy of Country Music Awards, and you can catch more on that during New Music Mondays. We’re staying busy with our Featured Prints in 11x14, 16x20, and 20x30—the 16x20 is our best seller right now, and I’m mailing out the last of those orders today before we kick off full-time production on Issue #11 of the magazine.

A huge shout-out to the Dr. Pepper plant out in Frisco—Dr. Pepper is officially the drink of C10 America Mornings, whether we're here in the studio or out at your events. We’ve had some incredible sit-downs recently with folks like Jo Coddington and Tyler Watkins, who is truly bad to the bone with that C10 truck of his. If you’ve got a unique truck or a story that needs to be told, we are the place that wants to give you the platform to tell it. Remember, the world is listening, and we love you guys—catch the new interview tonight at 8:00 PM Central Standard Time right here in the C10 America Facebook group, and look for it on Spotify tomorrow.

We also have to say a special thank you to the folks over at #OBSSoftware that lets us do such awesome streaming to Facebook, and we have to thank #AudacitySoftware for their awesome audio editing software. We also want to thank #AffinitySoftware—without Affinity, we would not be able to put out our awesome magazine. To each and everybody out there, thank you, and we honor what you guys are doing; we just wanted to give you a little kickback and let everybody know we love you guys.

C10 America Mornings is where the day kicks off the right way—straight talk, truck culture, and everything happening inside the C10 America world. Every morning we jump on live to run through what’s coming up, what’s moving, and what’s shaking in the community.

Tuesday night we go live inside the group with Tyler Watkins—the burnout king himself—talking about his squarebody C10, event life, and everything that makes him one of the most recognizable names out there. Then Thursday night we sit down with Javier, a talented automotive photographer capturing C10 trucks from shows and shoots all over the map, marking our first deep-dive conversation with a photographer in the C10 space.

On top of that, the C10 America machine is running full throttle. Metal features and show boards are moving fast, with the order queue building back up and 11 new orders already in the pipeline while current pieces continue shipping out today and tomorrow. We’ll also be rolling in some new sound effects and show elements to keep things fresh and give the mornings a little more energy and character.

If you’re part of the C10 America community, this is the place to stay plugged in—what’s coming up, what’s being built, and what’s happening in real time.

📖 What Makes C10 America Magazine Different?

Unlike traditional magazines, the photographers are you.

The trucks, photos, and stories featured in C10 America Magazine come directly from members of the C10 America community. You don't need professional photography experience, and you don't need to be a professional writer.

All you need to submit is:

📸 Photos of your truck
📝 One paragraph about yourself
📝 One paragraph about your truck

From there, Rich takes your story and transforms it into a full-feature article, while your photos are enhanced and showcased throughout the magazine.

Most magazines send photographers and writers to create content. At C10 America, the community creates the content. That's what makes this magazine special.

Whether your truck is a daily driver, work in progress, patina survivor, farm truck, or show truck, every build has a story worth telling.

We don't just feature trucks—we feature the people behind them.

We’re fresh off the heels of Father’s Day, and man, I hope you all had an absolute blast. Big shout-out to every dad and father figure out there—you guys are the backbone of this hobby. We’ve been hearing some great stories already, but I want to know what you did. Did you get the kids out in the garage? Did you hit a show? Or maybe you just spent some quality time with the family? Hit us up on social media and tell us about your weekend!

We’re building something special here, and it’s about more than just trucks—it’s about passing the torch. Get your kids involved, bring those sons and daughters into the C10 America community, and show them what this lifestyle is all about.

Want to deck out your shop? You’ve got to check out these metal prints. They look insane on the wall—the perfect addition to any garage.

And don’t forget: Sign up for the magazine! Keep yourself dialed in with the best stories, the best builds, and the heart of this community delivered straight to you.

Let’s keep these trucks on the road and these stories alive. We’re doing this for the love of the hobby—now let’s get out there and crush it!

#C10AmericaMornings #C10Community #Fatherhood #C10Trucks #MetalPrints #C10Magazine #RealTrucksRealStories

On this Father's Day, we honor the men who lead, love, sacrifice, and build—not only trucks, but families, communities, and legacies.

A truck can teach us a lot about life. It takes patience to build something worthwhile. It takes commitment to keep it running. And when things break down, it takes faith and determination to put it back together again.

The same is true for our homes.

The strongest foundation any father can give his family isn't found in a toolbox, a paycheck, or even a perfectly restored truck. It's found in a life centered on God, built on faith, and lived with integrity.

Today's image reminds us that while engines may power our trucks, faith powers our journey. Families grow stronger when they pray together, encourage one another, and keep their eyes fixed on what truly matters.

So whether you're turning wrenches in the garage, sitting around the dinner table, or spending time with those you love, remember these words:

"As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord."

May we be men who lead with humility, serve with purpose, love without condition, and leave behind a legacy that points others toward Christ.

Happy Father's Day from C10 America Talks. Faith. Family. Trucks. Freedom. 🇺🇸

Welcome to a brand-new audio experience from C10 America Talks. In this debut episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on the inspiration and raw emotion that fueled our song, "Tailgate Prayers."

This isn't just about the music; it’s about the life, the memories, and the stories that happen when you’re leaning against the tailgate. Join me as I walk you through the journey of how this track came to be, the meaning behind the lyrics, and why these stories matter. We’re trying something different with this podcast—bringing you closer to the heart of the music and the culture we love.

Grab a seat, hit play, and let’s dive into the story behind the song.

How does that version feel to you?

After a stretch of changing routines, finishing up the magazine work, and locking in the latest metal print projects, it’s time to get back to the early mornings and rebuild that steady 4AM grind. It’s not always easy getting the rhythm back after a break, but the mission stays the same—keep building, keep creating, and keep moving forward.

Rich talks about where things stand with C10 America right now, including continued growth in the community as the numbers climb to 87.2K members and still rising. From starting at zero to where things are today, the momentum is real—and it’s only picking up.

This episode is a reminder of what it takes behind the scenes: consistency, adjustment, and getting back in the studio even when the schedule gets thrown off. The work doesn’t stop, and neither does the growth of the C10 America family.

Thanks for being part of the ride.
