Our History
The Story of Short Haul
The Little Rig
The story of the Little Rig began with one man’s passion for craftsmanship and the trucking industry.
For more than a decade, Daryl Arnold dedicated himself to designing and hand-building the original Little Rigs, creating a one-of-a-kind custom vehicle that quickly became recognized by trucking enthusiasts across the country. His commitment to quality, creativity, and detail established the Little Rig as more than just a golf cart—it became an icon that celebrates the pride and heritage of the trucking community.
The Legacy Continues
Today, that legacy continues through Short Haul Customs.
While we have taken on the manufacturing, design, and future growth of the Little Rig brand, Daryl remains an integral part of the process. As the original creator, he continues building Little Rigs alongside our team, ensuring the craftsmanship, quality, and attention to detail that made them special from the very beginning remain at the heart of every build.
Our mission is to preserve what made the Little Rig legendary while expanding the brand for future generations. By combining Daryl’s experience with Short Haul Customs’ commitment to innovation, customization, and customer service, we’re introducing the Little Rig to more enthusiasts, businesses, and trucking fans than ever before.
Every Little Rig that leaves our shop represents the next chapter in a story that began years ago—a handcrafted custom build created with the same passion, precision, and dedication that started it all.
