Dwayne Johnson gave his dad a surprise $60,000 truck just to say thank you

We all have our own ways of expressing appreciation, but Dwayne Johnson certainly puts the rest of us to shame.

To thank his dad for raising him, the wrestler-turned-actor gifted him with a $60,000 car.

That goes much further than a card and a box of chocolates.

How the Rock showed his appreciation

The Rock bestowed a Ford Explorer onto his lucky father, sharing a photo to commemorate the occasion.

Writing to his 74 million Instagram followers, Johnson wrote: “My dad, Rocky Johnson, is a minimalist.

“Always has been. Never asks me for much and over the years his needs are always the barest.

“Over the years, I’ve moved him into a big home, got him trucks to drive – which he’ll literally drive into the ground until I get him something else.

“Hell, I’ll get him anything he wants, but the SOB just won’t ask.”

The Ford Explorer is not the first car that the Jumanji star has gifted to his nearest and dearest.

He’d previously given his Uncle Tonga, who was also a wrestler at one point, a brand new Ford F-150 truck.

That F-150 cost almost $60,000.

He had a special note of thanks for his uncle, who lent him some wrestling shorts back at the start of his career when he couldn’t to buy his own.

Thanking his uncle, the 52-year-old said: “My Uncle Tonga is a family man, humble man and champion.

“Most importantly one of the greatest human beings I know.”

With a $10 million car collection under his belt – and not the WWE kind – it’s clear that Johnson has an eye for cars.

Unfortunately, the 6’5″ star can’t fit into all of them.

But he sure does look cool standing next to them.
