RFK drivers Chris Buescher and Ryan Preece appeared in a playful video on Instagram recently. The duo, in the official Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing video, chatted about their pickup trucks and playfully took a dig at one another.
Preece and Buescher are teammates and will race in the 2025 Cup Series alongside Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing co-owner Brad Keselowski. RFK Racing signed the former Stewart-Haas Racing driver after SHR announced to shut its NASCAR operations at the end of 2024.
Preece, the 34-year-old driver, will drive the #60 Ford Mustang Dark Horse, while Buescher and Keselowski will be in charge of the #17 and #6 Ford Mustangs.
When asked in the Instagram video by RFK, "How does a proper pickup truck look? Is it lifted or slammed?" the two drivers had entirely different answers.
Buescher started with his choice,
"This high (pointing upwards), this high off the ground. Way up tall."
Preece immediately objected, and said,
"We don't fly airplanes bud, we're supposed to be on the ground."
Buescher did not hold back, as he went again,
"You can drive yours under mine, it's fine."
Preece, on the verge of giving up, stated,
"That's true, that is true."
As seen in the video, Ryan Preece drives a truck very low to the ground. On the other hand, Buescher's truck seemed opposite and very high from the ground.
Ryan Preece looks forward to working with Chris Buescher at RFK in 2025
Ahead of his RFK debut in the Cup Series next season, Ryan Preece made his feelings known about working with Chris Buescher. The former Stewart-Haas Racing driver, in one of his interviews, stated that he was looking forward to uniting with Buescher once again.
Here's what he said,
"Doing my part, which is strong work ethic, being present and doing all those things, but the side of him, which is going to be building that team around you and giving you the opportunity to succeed that that's something, you know, it's a race car driver that you really want to hear."
"One thing that I look forward to. So there's a lot of things that I look forward to, which is working with Chris again. We certainly had a lot of a lot of fun. We were working together in 2019 and I feel like there's a lot of stuff outside of the race car that we're gonna have. We're going to enjoy doing so," Preece added.
Notably, Preece and Buescher raced together in the Cup Series during the 2019 season when the former joined the latter at JTG Daugherty Racing's Cup Series line-up.
