All day every day people ask me "Is TRUCK HECK real?" Buddy, everything is real. Specifically I think people want to know if "Michael Kerwin's TRUCK HECK: a video game with graphics by Brent 'Touchdown' Porter and music by Ken 'Coda' Snyder: written, produced, designed, and directed by Tim Rogers" is a "real" video game. I will probably never answer that question in a manner that'd please a police officer. However, I will sell you this shirt, designed by none other than Dan "Dandy Dan D" "Double D" Dussault.
Double D designed *the* Final Fantasy XIV shirt favored by Yoshi-P himself, though does Yoshi-P personally type Dan Dussault's name in the product description of that shirt? In summary, TRUCK HECK is better than Final Fantasy XIV by default.
Back when I was seeing more bands per week than I was "performing" in, we had a rule: always buy a good band's t-shirt, though never wear it to one of their shows. I didn't like that rule. I followed it anyway. Back when I was performing in more bands weekly than the number of people who showed up to see any individual one of those bands, we had another rule: never make a t-shirt for a band before your first show. Look, I realize that's a strangely specific rule, and you probably know it wouldn't be a rule if it hadn't happened, quite on accident and with awful effect.
Lately I see my life in a sort of a little miniature renaissance, so I figure, why not drag that rule back out of the lake and break it again, this time with loudness and effortlessness, and cleanly in two, right over my knee?
So though Action Button has yet to show you a trailer for TRUCK HECK, I want you to buy this shirt out of trust.
"Trust" is such a theme of this shirt, in fact, that I'm not even going to show you the back of the shirt. Just know this: there's something on the back of the shirt. It rules. That's all I'll say.
I asked Dan Dussault to base this shirt on my personal Holy Grail--if it's okay to call something a Holy Grail if you already own it. Said grail is a shirt from the sixth-annual Hav-A-Tampa Shootout race at Dixie Speedway in Woodstock, Georgia in 1995. Maybe every third time I wear that shirt, I get some weirdo offering to buy it from me for some ridiculous price. One time in San Francisco some rich boy at a party offered me $500--"Cash."
I wasn't gonna sell him the shirt anyhow, though I humored him. I said "Show me the money" and he said "I mean Cash, the app. Or I could Venmo." That was, coincidentally, the first time I heard the word "Venmo"--and I didn't like it.
I coulda used that money back then. Well, I didn't take it: a grail's a grail.
That old shirt is printed on a permanently luxurious ash-colored 1995 Hanes Heavyweight T-Shirt. Printful (our supplier) doesn't provide ash-colored Hanes Heavyweights, though the Gildan you see here is extraordinarily close in quality, color, and texture. Purchase with confidence that you're both getting a good shirt and that you're getting in on the ground floor of enjoyership of what may someday become one of the greatest video games in history.
My old Hav-A-Tampa shirt is an XL, and I wouldn't have it any other way: a little looseness is appropriate for any stock-car-adjacent shirt. I (6'0", 160lbs) wear this here shirt in an XL as well--and I love every minute.
