Truck$ & Buck$ is the Nebraska Lottery’s longest-running Scratch game, and players await the return of Truck$ & Buck$ every year.

The truck prize is valued at $58,500, which includes $1,171 for costs associated with ownership and state and federal withholding paid by the Nebraska Lottery of $2,925 and $14,625, respectively.

For the “Buck$” portion of the game, a total of $765,120 in cash prizes is available, including 60 prizes of $500. Players can also win one of three $1,000 Ethanol-enriched fuel prizes.
