  • Delete, NN monster truck. Smerdis of Tlön 15:33, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep, truck was featured in several magazines and was frequently on television in it's heyday. I did not create the article but I can (and will) expande it when I get the time. Arenacale 03:56, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
 AFD relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached.
 Please add new discussions below this notice. Thanks, Mailer Diablo 20:51, 25 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete as nn. I get 16 Ghits, mostly photo listings. No multiple non-trivial third-party articles. I checked the video cited by Arenacale and it's unclear if it was broadcast, or how widely. Looking at the apparent magazine citation, I note there's no publication date given - how old is this thing? Taken in context with the 16 Ghits, I have real problems with an article about a non-notable former monster truck. Tychocat 09:04, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
    • Truck existed from roughly 1987 to 1991. The television broadcasts are from ESPN.Arenacale 14:57, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment There was a previous AFD] concerning some currently defunct trucks I felt were non-notable, feel free to draw your own conclusions from it.Arenacale 15:02, 26 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per Tychocat. — pd_THOR | =/\= | 16:41, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep, passes our guidelines for sports notability. Recury 13:53, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep if there is a source found for the assertion that Am/Pm Boss was the first Monster Truck driven by a woman. That would establish a degree of notability. Agne 05:21, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
Comment to my vote above. While I couldn't find a note about Am/Pm Boss and the first woman driver, I did find this note about Bigfoot having the first woman monster truck driver. Of course, this is a site ran by the Bigfoot people and I could couldn't substantiate it with an additional source. If the Bigfoot claim can be shown true then I would see no reason to keep Am/Pm Boss and would change my vote to delete. Agne 05:31, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
