Rick Ross has shared a video of the moment he received his customized semi-truck back – and it’s safe to say he was pretty excited.
In a clip shared to his Instagram account, Ross began to shout ‘you better be ready’ as the red and black truck approached.
The 49-year-old rapper and music exec has an estimated net worth of around $150 million.
And he’s not shy about splashing the cash when it comes to cars.

The red and black semi-truck has been customized
Rick Ross rates his collection so much that he’s previously challenged the internet to find a better collection than his.
Alongside his envy-inducing haul of cars, he’s also the proud owner of a $35 million Gulfstream G550 private jet.
And if that’s not enough variety for you, he’s also got his very own Peterbilt semi-truck.
The music mogul bought the truck last year, but has since had it customized.
In a clip shared to his @richforever Instagram account, Ross could be seen standing outside one of his properties as a truck beeped away in the background.
“I hear the 18-wheeler, I hear the 18-wheeler,” he said in the clip. “You better be ready!”
The camera then pans to the black and red semi-truck, which has gleaming chrome to the front.
In another clip, Ross can be seen recoiling as the driver of the truck toots its horn.
To be fair, it is very loud.
Rick Ross had a very savvy reason for buying the truck
While buying a semi-truck may seem like a slightly odd purchase for a celebrity, it was actually a savvy move for Ross.
In a clip he uploaded back in August last year, he explained that he would use the truck to transport some of the cars from his massive collection to his 2025 Rick Ross Car Show.
Ross said that in 2024, he’d spent around $50,000 transporting his high-end vehicles to the show, so had decided to spend $150,000 on buying his very own semi-truck that he could use to transport them as often as he needed to in the future.
“I was inspired and once again, it was a great business move,” he explained.
“Instead of $50,000 on one event, go ahead and buy a whole truck for $150,000 and go ahead and do what you want for as long as you need to do it.”
Pretty smart, right?
