Monster Trucks Wiki


Fullboar (Currently billed as Fullboar 2.0 since 2017) is a 2008 Ford F-250 monster truck owned and driven by Ed Eckert. Ryan Fales was a backup driver for Ed at times. It's not known what year(s) or show(s) he competed in. The truck is best known for running the smaller venues and also known for his fast-paced cyclone donuts. Its first chassis, formerly Slick Willy, was up for sale a while ago, recently sold and became a race version of Mud Rat.

History[]

2002[]

Fullboar made its debut in Montgomery, Alabama on what was Slick Willy. Ed created Fullboar after showing a truck at truck shows. Someone said he should build a monster truck, which he would do. He got help from friends.

2007[]

Fullboar was one of the first 5 trucks to ever perform in Israel as part of a foreign tour.

2008[]

Throughout the season, Fullboar ran a Jolly Roger flag, with a red "no" symbol covering the skull. This was likely intended as a playful jab towards Grave Digger, which is known for running a Jolly Rodger at most of its appearances.

2017[]

Ed Eckert got a new Cohen built chassis for 2017. The new truck is called "Fullboar 2.0". 2017 would be the last season the truck ran in Monster Jam as it would run on Arena Championship Series 6. Ed finished 6th. This year would also mark the truck's last full year of competition as it has run sparingly since then.

2024[]

The truck returns to competition in Coeburn, Virginia.

Trivia[]

  • It originally was a part of Perrin Motorsports, before becoming a part of its own team.
  • It is one of few trucks to have a Hot Wheels version made with a bar as a sponsorship, which is normally censored, as they are intended to be sold to children.
  • Fullboar had a more stylized Hot Wheels concept made for one of its releases, intended to be the new paint job. It was never used.
  • Ed put the entire operation on RacingJunk for $260,000. It was removed, but then re-listed a few times.
  • The truck's website is fullboarracing.com.
  • Eckert had a PEI chassis for the truck. However, it was never used and would be sold to Greg Winchenbach and become Lumberjack.
