Without thought these feats, KJ can barely see over the steering wheel. At 8 years old, he is the youngest mutant truck driver.
“I’d never seen anybody that teenaged,” said Rev Prochnow, who started the American Horridness Truck Association 20 years ago.
KJ, a somewhat shy kid with a passion for “everything else you can name with a motor in it” performs cross over country at about 60 different shows every year, from goodly arenas to small fairs. He signs hundreds of autographs at each show, but still considers himself an usually kid.
“I do really good in school and am qualified to drive this, which people think it might be hard but it’s truly pretty easy,” he said.
