Luke Combs received an astonishing gift from Garth Brooks.

Combs reflected on the moment he unexpectedly received a massive gift from Brooks during an episode of Armchair Expert, hosted by actor and comedian Dax Shepard. Combs said he was feeding one of his sons when he saw his manager drive up in a Ford Bronco Raptor. The singer-songwriter said it was “weird,” and his manager “would never show up at my house unannounced.”

Combs said his manager tossed him the keys, and he asked, “Are you giving me your car? What is this?” He said his manager replied, “no, man, Garth bought you this.”

The “Back in the Saddle” superstar said he did “not really” know Brooks at that time. Brooks apparently gave Combs the Bronco because Combs agreed to perform a song in his honor at the Nashville Songwriters Awards in 2022 at the historic Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, Tennessee. Combs covered Brooks’ 1995 hit “The Beaches of Cheyenne” as a tribute when the Oklahoma-born icon received the Kris Kristofferson Lifetime Achievement Award. Brooks apparently contacted Combs’ manager shortly after the event to come up with a gift idea. The gift was delayed, and arrived more than a year later.

Combs said “obviously I called him” after receiving the surprise Ford Bronco Raptor. He said Brooks told him, “‘you could’ve booked your own show that night, and, you know, made this much money, or whatever.’ And I was like, I was just kind of floored by that, to be honest.”

Throughout the podcast, Combs went on to talk about his high school music teachers, his passion for playing music, his epic performance of “Fast Car” with Tracy Chapman at the Grammy Awards in 2024, what he’s learned about his OCD, and more:

“Luke Combs (Back in the Saddle, Fathers & Sons, What You See Is What You Get) is an award-winning songwriter, singer, and musician. Luke joins the Armchair Expert to discuss Garth Brooks gifting him a surprise truck, why buying a plane is akin to flushing money down the toilet, and still feeling lazy despite everything he’s achieved. Luke and Dax talk about his high school music teachers that still come to his shows, assuming that life was getting a job that you hate because he didn’t know any different, and that being thankful for what you have and helping others is the antidote to entitlement. Luke explains why we’re in international waters in terms of where the music industry is going, how he took having his first studio album at #1 for 44 weeks, and the intrusive thoughts-related form of OCD that he's dealt with all his life.”
