    #19 was my favorite Digger chassis. When that truck debuted in Houston 2004, I had a hunch that this truck would be Dennis' best racing truck to that date. And sure enough, he claimed his first World Finals racing championship that year. And of course, it could freestyle very well too. Some earlier hints of what the future Son Uva Digger truck could do in some of 19's runs back then. Paved the way for the infamous #20 right after but man, this truck sure gave Dennis a new chapter into his career & set the stage for the future of monster trucks!

    Number 20 deserves it's place. It's Dennis's personal favorite and he was almost unstoppable in it. Plus those green flames instead of the usual fog took it to a whole new level

    Most memorable Grave Digger moment for me:
    In March of 1999, I was 11 and Seattle held the last ever Off Road Championship in the Seattle Kingdome before it was going to be demolished, so Dennis Anderson and Grave Digger #8 made a special appearance to send the old dome off the proper way.
    The coolest thing however is a few of my relatives were working for the Quick N' Brite race team so my folks and I got to go into the pits when no other fans were around and I got to meet the legend Dennis Anderson. One of the coolest, nicest guys you could ever meet. He autographed a massive 24x36 poster I had drawn of Grave Digger and said he was going to "tear this truck up". My folks and I were so insanely excited that I forgot to take a picture with him... He went absolutely insane during the freestyle, and I wish I still had video of it... It's a moment I'll never forget!
    This is the only clip I can find of the freestyle, so if anyone has the full video, please let me know!!!

    Man MonsterTalk, you've definitely brighten up my day my friend! I've been a huge Grave Digger since the year 2000, and I'm still watch Monster Jam and Grave Digger is still my favorite monster truck on this day. Great video!

    Gotta give you credit, you did your homework and didn’t hear much that wasn’t correct. Kudos!
    Couple tidbits I’ll contribute:
    - Pablo’s Digger 16 ran WF in 2003 when Dennis was injured.
    - The reason Adam’s 32 was front-halved was because during Q1 in 2016, in St. Louis, he under rotated a backflip and ruined the chassis. Cohen has some pictures on the rebuild on his Insta. The following week, Adam had to drive 23 in Detroit where he had a very memorable winning freestyle, and I believe the week after 32 returned and was affectionately referred to as 32.5 until it was retired. 2016 was a fun tour!

    • @george_2172
      @george_2172 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s cool you brought up 32! That was one of my favorite chassis’ and I really enjoyed watching Adam on his maiden voyage to take the series championship while dominating weekend in and out and then he drove it in 2017 on the west series and got third and then Tyler Menninga won his series in it for 2018

    • @happyfamily7642
      @happyfamily7642 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Pablos ran cause he wrecked Dennis' through a tree in qualifying cause he couldn't fit the seat.

    @twistedaxles9126 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Digger #20 has to be one of my favorite Grave Digger chassis thanks to its ballistic freestyle at Atlanta 2007, and the front of the chassis looking like a smile with the lamps being the eyes, and the angled green piece of chassis looking like a mouth.
    Digger #16 is also one of my favorite trucks because of the Freestyle it had at St. Louis 2007 and the cool purple rims wich imo look miles better than the green rims GD uses now.

  • @TheUmbreonGuy
    @TheUmbreonGuy 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I feel like number 1 could've at least been mentioned as an honorable mention, considering it was the truck that kick-started the whole Grave Digger empire.

  • @KingMandarin

  • @RailStalkerAdventures
    @RailStalkerAdventures 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    My favorite Digger trucks in the fleet were the first 12 GD trucks, because they all had their own character. I don't think that the Digger mud racer is on my list but if it was, I would put that rig in the 11th spot just to even my list out. FAST FACT: Grave Digger #2 was active from 1988 up to the 1990 season. Awesome video as always and keep on jammin', my man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    My favourite one will always be the 30th anniversary Grave Digger. I still remember when it make apparence years ago. I fell in love with that truck that I even remember my mom bought me the 30th anniversary RC GD for my birthday. It blew me away coz its paint and all the details that car had were spot on. I really miss Dennis Anderson behind the wheel driving that iconic Monster Truck.

  • @captainboose8788
    @captainboose8788 2 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Very neat video, I would have to push 7 and 12 up though, Dennis used 7 in some 2000 and 2001 summer shows, and did some absolutely awesome runs with it, Raceway park is a prime example, overall good stuff

    • @emojiiiii

  • @AGMCDumpTruck

  • @johnnylightning1
    @johnnylightning1 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I like Grave Digger 12 because it is unique from the other chassis. It’s much longer than all the other chassis and I think it was just a really good handling truck.

  • @danieldavis9832
    @danieldavis9832 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    7 is my favorite. I didn’t realize that crash snapped 2s frame. I guess that’s why they didn’t just have the frame laying around somewhere

  • @azisles02
    @azisles02 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    My favorite is either 12, 20 or 32. I might say 20 because when he drove it, it inspired him to build my favorite Monster truck chassis of all time, Taz 2.

  • @Jt7166
    @Jt7166 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Gravedigger 7 has to be one of the sketchiest monster trucks I've ever seen. Dennis was so pumped about that short wheel base but it just didn't work with how tracks evolved at that time.

    @Gmk4667 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    One moment I can’t forget; I went to a show at Lucas oil stadium when I was like 9 or so and every single truck got some kind of damage but not Grave Digger, so it won by default.

  • @robertruiziii4310
    @robertruiziii4310 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    In my opinion, the most Icon monster truck of all time is Bigfoot, the most popular truck that made monster jam what it is today is grave digger.

  • @pitgroove.37_66
    @pitgroove.37_66 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I'm certain we're absolutely never going to see something like this, but it's always been on the back of my mind to see a grave digger with a front engine chassis. We've seen both the 25th and 30th anniversary monster jam bodies as well as the monster energy body that were mounted on a front engine chassis and they seem to look really cool on a front engine chassis, so it always crosses my mind what gravedigger would look like

      @grumpyoltimer7523 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They still go head to head yearly at non Monster Jam events. Most of the time Bigfoot still whoops his ass. Bigfoot is still the winningest monster truck in history.

  • @EPstroker
    @EPstroker 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    You got it right......20 was his best piece ever. He made the change and built 20 with heavier tubing after 19 had many frame cracks etc. That's why he did t stay in 19 any longer than he did.

    • @MonsterTalkOfficial
      @MonsterTalkOfficial  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Stage 4 trucks, at least nowadays, weigh a lot more for one due to increased cage support and are built to take much more severe impacts. GD19 didn't weigh significantly more but part of stage 4 trucks is the spread, low cradle with a low engine placement, as well as consisting almost entirely of custom built monster truck components instead of parts that are repurposed.

    19 is my number 1, but 20 might be tied with it after watching this. Seems that many of the memories I had associated being with 19 were really 20.
    I think the reason I didn’t like 20 was due to Dennis breaking his arm in 2007. I loved the Green Ghost scheme though

    Too me 14 was the start of the grave diggers we see today. And is very underrated. Yes it had a rough start but after that dennis would start to win a good amount

    Good video but Grave Digger 2 is actually number 3 or 4. Number 2 was the first ford panel truck with Blue and Grave paint scheme then later the Grave Yard paint job. Also know as Grandma is also the first to beat Bigfoot in a side by side racing back in the old TNT Redman series.
