King Sling is a 1941 Willy's mega truck owned by Dennis Anderson, based on the mud truck of the same name. Due to health reasons, Dennis only drives a few competitions a year. Weston Anderson and a few others drive at the remaining events.
History[]
King Sling was unveiled in November 2010 at SEMA.
Around 2014, King Sling was shelved. Dennis said in an interview that the reason was that he wanted to focus his main attention on Grave Digger and Monster Jam as to not jeopardize his family dynasty, threaten the Grave Digger market, and also due to still being under contract with FELD Motorsports.
A new version debuted in 2019, with two paint schemes, one being purple and the other being green.
In 2021, it would also run a pink scheme for a "Bogging for Boobies" breast cancer awareness event. In the same year, Weston set a new world record jump at 225 feet.
In 2022, the truck received an R/C release by Losi.
In 2023, the truck would receive a limited edition 1:64 scale diecast released by Spin Master. In that same year when Cliff Thomas drove in Spring Sling.
