“Everybody’s liked it. Nobody’s said anything bad about it yet,” he said.
“Around Aylesford there’s a lot of motorsports people and there’s a lot of success with it.”
He’s made a business out of renting the truck out for community events and private parties. The rates vary depending on distance and timing, but a general price estimate for a twohour rental between New Minas to Middleton is typically $350.
“I wouldn’t have been able to get it if it wasn’t for the sponsors,” he said, stressing that support from local sponsors played a crucial role in turning his dream into a reality.
“It’ll be all over the place this summer,” he said.
The truck is in demand for birthday parties throughout the province, and the suspension system makes a tour on the back feel like a thrill ride.
“There’s so many different things you can do with it,” said Meister.
He hopes to eventually get a truck that is specifically designed for driving over cars – one of the more popular requests he receives while behind the wheel in The Sheriff.
“There’s never been these at birthdays around here, that’s the biggest thing,” he said, adding that he loves to give monster truck fans a chance to go for a spin.
“I don’t care how long it takes as long as everybody can enjoy it.”
