Interesting facts and trivia about 7500 OBO. By Songfacts®.

At first, this appears to be a typical "I love my truck" song as Tim McGraw bigs up his dark blue 2006 Ford F-150 with a brand-new transmission, leather seats and sunroof. Soon it becomes clear he is trying to sell his beloved vehicle because of the memories it holds. I wish I didn't have to get rid of it But every time I turn that key, I see her Every time McGraw gets into his pickup truck, he's haunted by the remembrances of his lost love.

Nathan Spicer (Jake Owen's "Senorita," Ryan Hurd's "To a T," "Every Other Memory") Jenn Schott (Mickey Guyton's "Better Than You Left Me," Tim McGraw's "Two Lanes of Freedom") and Matt McGinn (Kane Brown's "What Ifs," "Heaven," "Cool Again") wrote "7500 OBO."

McGraw told Apple Music when he listened to the demo he noticed it sampled his "Where the Green Grass Grows" fiddle and also included references to some of his tracks. "It took me a minute to get my head around that, saying, 'Should I sing this song or should someone else sing this song?' he said. "But at the end of the day, it was just a really good song." One of McGraw's concerns was whether he could "handle that kind of vocal cadence." But when he came to lay it down, "oddly enough, it was one of the easiest vocals I did on the whole record."
