C10 America Talks, is where we talk to the Owners, the Builders, the Creators out there doing the unthinkable!

We recap last weekend’s Rat Pack Car Show and look ahead to some killer upcoming events, including C10s in the Park, Slow Down in California on June 25th, and the White Buffalo Wheels event in Steiner, Texas on October 3rd. If you’re into classic trucks, road trips, blue-collar culture, and the people who keep this scene alive, this one’s for you.

Rich also talks about the studio getting absolutely slammed with new metal print orders, the continued growth of the C10 America family, and the exciting new venture with Roller to help creators launch their own podcasts with custom intros, outros, production help, and more. Music, storytelling, live shows, creative ideas, and building something bigger than trucks—it’s all happening right here.

As always, we appreciate every single one of you tuning in from across the country and around the world. Whether you’re listening from the garage, the shop, the road, or the living room, thank you for being part of the movement.

In this live episode from the C10 America Facebook group, Texas Rich jumps on with a fresh weekend recap from the Rat Pack Car Show in Gale, Texas, sharing what it was like being on the ground with the C10 community. He talks through the turnout, the atmosphere, the people who stopped by the booth, and the overall energy that makes these shows what they are—blue-collar, builder-driven, and full of passion for the culture.

From there, the conversation opens up into what’s coming next in the C10 world, highlighting upcoming events like White Buffalo Wheels Car Show on October 3rd, C10 Slowdown in California on July 25th, and C10s in the Park in Waxahachie on September 19th. It’s all about keeping the community plugged in and aware of where the trucks, builders, and events are headed this season.

He also dives into what’s happening behind the scenes with C10 America—keeping content moving, managing metal print orders, and balancing the day-to-day grind of running a growing media platform. The talk turns real about business needs too, including finding reliable sticker vendors and continuing to build stronger advertiser relationships to support the growth of the magazine, podcast, and group.

It’s a straightforward live update from inside the C10 America world—focused on real events, real work, and the ongoing hustle of building something rooted in truck culture and community.

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:

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.

In this episode, Rich talks about an issue that popped up with the canopy setup ahead of the upcoming Rat Pack Car Show in Gail, Texas. Thankfully, after heading over to his dad’s house, the issue was caught and handled before making the trip down south. As Rich says, it’s always better to find a problem close to home instead of discovering it once you’re already at the showgrounds.

We’re turning C10 America Talks into a full-blown old-school radio and interviewing experience with that classic 80s station flavor — real talk, real trucks, real people, and a soundtrack built for the blue-collar heartbeat of America. From gritty country twang to highway-running rock & roll, we’re bringing you music made for the C10 lifestyle.

🚨 Starting Monday nights at 8PM CST:

We’ve got brand-new C10-inspired music coming your way — custom songs written from real ideas, real stories, and real truck culture. I throw the concepts out, and my buddy Jeff Richards, aka “Roller,” out of Parker, Colorado, brings them to life. Every song you hear on this podcast is written by Roller himself. Everything this guy touches… everything he writes… turns to gold.

Together, we’re building a soundtrack for the C10 community unlike anything else out there.

🎵 If you hear a song tonight that you love, you’ll soon be able to download it over at:

Tonight’s podcast is the first test drive of the new direction:

Tonight was mainly about testing the new format, the music flow, the sound, and the overall vibe of where we’re taking the podcast. We did not have an interview tonight, but interviews will absolutely be a huge part of the show moving forward as we continue building this into a true old-school radio experience for the C10 community.

And the movement keeps growing…

C10 America officially hit 86,000 members today on Facebook, and we’re pushing hard toward 100,000 strong. Watching this thing grow from an idea into one of the biggest C10 communities out there has been incredible, and we’re just getting started.

After hearing about Kevin Dickey rebuilding his daughter Andi’s truck — a truck she always dreamed of seeing brought back to life — Jeff “Roller” Richards was inspired to sit down and write a tribute song called “Riding Shotgun From Heaven.”

Kevin poured himself into the build, taking the truck completely apart and rebuilding it from the ground up in honor of Andi’s memory. Today, that truck is known as “Andi’s Dream.”

Right now, we don’t have the full story beyond the truck itself, but down the road, we hope to sit down with Kevin here on C10 America Talks and let him share more about Andi, the build, and the meaning behind it all — if and when he’s ready.

For now, we simply wanted to share this song with you and honor a family, a memory, and a truck that clearly means so much more than metal and paint.
