Critical reception[]

Matt Bjorke of Roughstock reviewed the single favorably, saying that "The song may mentioned trucks and parties but it’s more about the roots and youthful lifestyle than trying to have a girl slide over on a bench seat or to get so washed out in party land that nothing else can be taken from the lyrics."[3]

Music video[]

The music video premiered in August 2013 on Hunt's independent YouTube channel. The music video features Hunt heading to Georgia to hang out with friends and family.[4]
