A lot of truckers spend the holidays on the road, but that doesn’t mean they leave the Christmas spirit behind. Plenty of drivers spread joy in any way they can — from stringing festive lights on their rigs to helping people in need and more.

So to all the working truckers out there, we say thank you for rolling through the holidays and being so cheery about it. To keep that spirit going, here are a few examples of a very trucking Christmas.

Eureka Christmas Truck Parade

Every year, the residents of this Eureka, California line the streets to see trucks of all types and sizes decorated in lights. It’s an oooh and ahh tradition that never fails to delight, and this time out one trucker wowed everyone with a display of LED lights.

Helping Trucking Families

For the past nine years, the Truckers Christmas Group has raised money to help trucking families that are going through tough times that may make their Christmas less merry and bright. So far they have helped 125 families to celebrate the holidays.

The Magical Christmas Caroling Truck

Also in California, in Toluca Lake, Christmas Eve carolers board the Magic Christmas Caroling Truck, a tractor-trailer decked out to look like a wintry village square. Dozens of singers on the trailer and a marching behind perform all of the season’s most-loved Christmas carols.

The Lip Syncing Trucker

It’s from a few years ago, but nobody can keep from smiling when they see this happy driver “singing” I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas. Bet you can’t watch it just once.
