One creative trucker is bringing the holiday spirit to the highways by converting his sleeper into a full-blown Santa photo booth – beard, boots, fake snow machine and all.
“I figured, why wait in line at the mall when I’ve got 8 feet of unused Christmas magic in my sleeper?” he said, while hot-gluing candy canes to his side mirrors.
The cab-turned-workshop features:
- A thrift-store Santa throne wedged between old logbooks
- Dollar-store string lights duct-taped to the bunk
- A festive backdrop reading “Naughty? That’s a Routing Issue.”
Children have reportedly lined up at truck stops nationwide to whisper wishes into CB mic props while sipping lukewarm hot cocoa served from a cupholder.
But it’s not just kids.
“I had a broker stop by and ask for a photo,” the driver admitted.
“He sat on my lap and asked for lower fuel surcharges. I told him he was on the naughty list.”
The driver, now going by “Saint Rick”, wears his Santa suit during deliveries and refuses to break character – even when backing into docks.
“I ho-ho-honk three times before reversing,” he said proudly. “Safety never takes a holiday.”
So far, his reviews are glowing. One dispatcher described it as “disturbing but kind of magical.” Another simply said, “He delivered freight and joy. Mostly freight.”
DOT officers pulled him over once, but he ended up posing for elf selfies and leaving with cookies.
“I figured if I can’t be home for Christmas,” the driver said, adjusting his beard, “I might as well bring Christmas to every shipping yard I touch.”
He now plans to tour until January – unless someone offers him a load of reindeer feed.
