Fourth of July parades across the country this year are sure to feature plenty of trucks in all sizes—including miniature ones.

Hard Working Trucks found some truck-filled videos that are sure to get you in a holiday mood.

The video for the Shriners’ mini-trucks may not be high-def quality, but it’s still worth watching nonetheless. These Blue Angels of mini-trucks pull off some well-timed driving stunts.

Rare footage from a 1946 Fourth of July fire truck parade in Racine, Wisconsin has been updated with a recent fire truck soundtrack.

A fan of a 1959 Chevy Apache 3100 Fleetside pickup gives a close-up tour of the red truck following its parade appearance.

A boat parade featuring a “floating fire truck” wins best in show for both day and night contests on Lake Blalock in Chesnee, S.C.

Young parade goers get a kick out of a large and mini-garbage trucks decorated in flags and flanked by rolling garbage cans. No sign of Oscar the Grouch, though.

Grayton Beach, Fla. keeps it simple and fun with plenty of pickup beds full of waving revelers.
