Where in the world is Editor Bob Carpenter?

I say he's out shooting some sort of tech somewhere in Southern California.

Calling Bob to the 8-Lug forums!!  

Pretty good guess! Today I took a tour and demonstration of the Source Interlink (that's our owners) photo studio. If you're a regular reader of 8-Lug you no doubt have noticed that we have the best photography in the business. Well, now we're going to be kicking it up a notch by taking some of the best trucks into the studio and shotting them under the soft boxes and mega-strobes. The results should be pretty spectacular. Give us about 3 or 4 months for the results to be in 8-Lug, but I'll definitely be posting some shots on the 8-Lug web site!

nice! I'm excited that you'll be using the studio. That's definitely cool.  

I'm in Turlock right now. Shot 4 trucks at Cal Hot Coatings last night. Driving 320+ miles home today. I posted sample photos.

I have tons of family in Turlock!!  

I'm heading out to Prescott, Arizona tomorrow (March 1, 2010) to drive the 2011 Ford Superduty trucks!

Just got back from the SEMA show. I've posted 3 of the 5 trucks I shot. Stay tuned for more. Right now I'm thrashing to get all the February issue stories in a week before the deadline because the company has mandated Thanksgiving week off. Not that I won't enjoy a week off, but boy time is certainly compressed right now!
