Funny Trucker Hat Sayings: 40 Original Lines That Fit on Your Forehead

A trucker hat is a billboard with roughly the surface area of a sandwich. People read it in about a second as you walk past. So the rule is simple: three to five words, or it's a paragraph on your forehead.

Every line below is original. Copy any of them onto a custom trucker hat or a dad hat, or wreck them into your own.

How to make your line hit

• Cut it: if you can delete a word and it's still funny, delete it.
• Use all caps in a bold font: block letters survive mesh, distance and squinting.
• Stay original: no brand names, logos, lyrics or movie quotes. They're owned, and we won't print them.
• Buying for a crew? Same line, different colors. See group & trip gear.
