I won the truck

[hvacr1]

So here it is documentation that I won the chevy truck in the cabelas fish for millions contest. This is the first letter I received on Friday may 31st letting me know that I was the unofficial winner. After signing a few legal documents in the packet and returning them with my tag I just received notice yesterday that I am the official winner. I have not actually spoke with a rep from cabelas yet but hopefully that will be this week as you must communicate with the promotion company first and they verify. I can't wait until I can pick out the truck I want and customize it to what I've always wanted. I am very stoked about this and I can't believe a top prize fish came out of hagg lake in Oregon. I would have let you folks know sooner but I wanted to make sure it was official before I told anyone. Best part is I was able to prove to my wife that the hundreds of hours of fishing time each year paid off finally lol. So for any skeptics out there (I'm the biggest one I know) it can be done and when it comes to fishing I'll take luck over skill most days.

This is definitely one of the greatest fishing stories i heard....CONGRATS!

If someone asks: "so how much did you get this truck for?"

You answer: "uh...trout?"

That's great,

Now just get ready to pay the huge tax bill that comes with it, about 1/3 of the value of the truck 55 k = about 18 thousand bucks

Oh come on Yogidabear. Don't be such a buzz kill!:dance: It's about time someone close to home won something. I always wonder if these things are fixed because no one seems to know the winners. Congratulations!!:clap:

Congrats man. But you don't really want all the stress of worrying about scratching a brand new truck. Or door dings in a parking lot or something. I'll take it OFF your hands for you. That's how nice of a guy I am.

I agree 100% with Radiation on both counts. Congratulations! Can one of your customizations be a diesel engine?

Your right I'm a buzz kill, sorry it's just the first thing that I thought of if I would have been the lucky winner. look at it this way he could turn around a flip it for an easy 40k maybe 45 pay the taxes and have 22 to 27 cash to buy a cool boat

That is such a generous offer to endure the anxiety this new winner will certainly experience. We have such a great group here to look out for each other like that, LOL

Thought I'd at least OFFer.
