It’s an absolute honor and dream come true to announce that I’ll be making my debut behind the wheel of the El Toro Loco @monsterjam truck!

I couldn’t be more grateful for the journey that has led me here. It’s been a long 7 years, full of challenges and hard work, but I wouldn’t change a thing. I want to thank everyone who has been a part of this incredible ride—those who have helped me along the way and those who have always believed in me, even when the road seemed tough. Your support has meant everything, and I wouldn’t be here without you. This moment is just as much yours as it is mine.

I can’t wait to kick things off here soon! Nampa, ID and Spokane, WA, Let’s go!!! 🤘🏼🇲🇽 🔥 #1eroDios #monsterjam #eltoroloco #DreamsComeTrue #Blessed #monstertruck by @abegalvan_

Man, there were many sleepless nights wondering if I’d ever make it, but I never let the doubt outweigh my determination. Every obstacle, every unanswered message, and every closed door fueled my fire to keep going. It wasn’t easy, and there were moments I questioned if this dream was even possible. But with hard work, persistence, and the right people in my corner, I kept pushing forward. To see this dream come to life and finally become a @monsterjam driver is proof that no matter where you come from or how impossible something may seem, with grit and belief in yourself, anything is achievable. These photos aren’t just memories, they’re milestones of a journey I’ll never take for granted. Here’s to chasing dreams and proving that with passion and perseverance, the impossible becomes possible. 🙏🏼🙌🏻 #1eroDios #monsterjam #eltoroloco #monstertruck #livingthedream #teamtoro #godisgood #latino #dream #big taken in Chicago, Illinois by @abegalvan_

This was one of those full circle moments for me. From growing up cheering in the stands to now having people in those same stands cheering for me was unreal. Looking up at the big screen and seeing myself up there, I said, “Oh my god.” It’s still surreal to see my name on the ribbon boards and catch my face on the jumbotron. Im truly blessed!

After all these years of grinding, there’s still plenty of work ahead, but every event brings me one step closer to the ultimate goal.

At the end of the day, I’m just a fan, just like anyone sitting in the stands. I didn’t come from a motorsports or mechanical background. No family ties in the industry. Just a regular dude who refused to take “no” for an answer.

Dream big. Work hard. And the impossible will become possible. 🙏🏼 #1erodios #monsterjam #monstermutt #monstertruck #livingthedream #godisgood #latino #mexico #fyp #paidinfull #chicago #dreambig taken in Palacio de los Deportes Ciudad de Mexico by @abegalvan_

Usually around this time of year, I’d be riding in a rig headed to a new city to kick off another display tour. This year looks a little different.

I’m definitely going to miss seeing all you amazing @monsterjam fans. This will be the first display tour since we started 6 years ago, that I won’t be a part of. It’s bittersweet, but I’m excited for what’s ahead and grateful for every opportunity that’s brought me to this point.

Im wishing my brother, Kyle and everyone else working behind the scenes the best of luck this summer. Thank you all for the memories and support!

Much love to everyone. See y’all soon. 🙏🏼🫡 #1eroDios #monsterjam #Dream #Big #GodisGood taken in Chicago, Illinois by @abegalvan_

Top photos are from 2017. Bottom photos are from 2025.

From standing in pit party lines as a fan waiting to meet Coty Saucier… to competing against him this year. From making a four hour trip to Indiana to drive a monster truck for $350… to now living out that same dream for real.

It’s been about 8.5 years and over 70,000 hours of hard work, learning, sacrifice, and belief.

If there’s one thing this journey has taught me, it’s that there’s never a perfect moment to chase your dream. Time is going to pass either way. What you choose to do with it is what matters.

Take that first step. Put in the work. Believe in the process. And never let anyone convince you that what you want is impossible. Dream Big! 🙏🏼 #1erodios #monsterjam #eltoroloco #monstermutt #monstertruck #livingthedream #godisgood #latino #mexico #fyp #paidinfull #chicago #dream taken in Chicago, Illinois by @abegalvan_

Such a cool behind the scenes look at what went down before I hit the floor for the first time in Bailey Circuit. @_jj48_ and I have been talking about working together for years. It finally happened and a fun time was had. From cracking jokes on the radio to making sure that truck was ready to roar. I’m thankful for him. Thank you to @joncrye for secretly capturing this moment! Love what you do and you’ll never work a day in your life!

Performing at the Allstate Arena has been a dream of mine for as long as I can remember. Last Sunday, that dream became reality and it still doesn’t feel real.

I went to my very first monster jam event there when I was 6 years old. From 6 to now, I’ve never missed a single show. Those trucks weren’t just entertainment to me, they were my happiness, my escape, and eventually my purpose. I grew up watching driver intros on Saturday nights and last weekend, I was part of them on Sunday.

It was the most hectic and emotional 24 hours of my life. I didn’t even have time to fully process what was happening. I was just trying to knock the rust off, but looking back now, I realize how special it truly was.

Having my family there meant everything. They’ve seen little Abe in the stands with big dreams and now they got to see those dreams come true. That’s something I’ll never take for granted.

I’m beyond grateful. Beyond blessed. God’s timing is always perfect. Dreams really do come true! 🙏🏼 #1eroDios #monsterjam #fyp #life #chicago taken in Chicago, Illinois by @abegalvan_
