The good ol’ boys and girls build trucks big in central Louisiana. No, like, really really ridiculously big. And loud. And just plain awesome. See what the madness of Louisiana Mudfest is all about in this awesome video.

This trip to Mudfest is part of Autoblog’s that diggest into car culture all over the country, and it’s one of the best stories I’ve seen about muddin’. Which, as you can see, comes down to “Good cooking, good friends, good fun, and a lot of partying.” Plus trucks.
