On the roads of North Jersey there's no surer sign of Christmas than Salomone Brothers construction company's cement mixers.
There are 50,000 lights per truck, snow-making machines and music.
The family-run construction company's five-year-old tradition has become cemented in the hearts of locals who keep their eyes peeled like children scanning the sky for Santa's sleigh.
"I've seen them on the highway on my way home from work, and they just make me happy," says Jennifer Knott. "And I saw them stopped and I had to stop and just take their picture."
The company brings the trucks to tree lightings, children's hospitals and events all season long.
