A mom who thought she was heading outside to help fix her dad's flat tire got a huge surprise when her husband presented her with a much-needed new truck. Mom-of-three Shanerica Knight, 29, from Quitman, Georgia, did not know how to react when she laid her eyes on the black Chevrolet Tahoe with a bow wrapped around it, walking around the parking lot in complete shock. Shanerica had previously been driving a Honda Accord Sport, but with a 10-year-old, a six-year-old, and a four-year-old, the vehicle was starting to feel cramped, Shanerica said. But then, ahead of her upcoming birthday, Shanerica – who had wanted to go on a cruise – was told by her husband that he had a different kind of gift in mind. Shanerica decided to go with the flow, and with her 10-year-old's birthday being just a couple of days before hers, the family decided to head out for a celebratory dinner. It was then, on June 7, that Shanerica had just taken her seat in the restaurant when she was told to head outside because her father had a flat tire. Shanerica thought she would be heading to her husband Ja'Juan's vehicle, but having confusedly walked past it, the 29-year-old then saw her Chevy with a bow around it. Ja'Juan captured his wife's stunned reaction on video as she paced around in disbelief at the sight of her much-needed "Mom Truck," as it was dubbed by the family.
