TAYLOR Lautner won’t be settling his lawsuit against a trailer company with a push-up contest.

The Twilight star — who filed suit against McMahon’s RV last month, claiming the firm failed to deliver a vehicle for use on the set of his new movie Abduction on time — has hit out at company owner Brent McMahon for suggesting the teen should settle the dispute with a push-up contest.

McMahon said he’d hand over $40,000 to Lautner if the actor won the challenge — but would give the cash to charity if he failed.

But Lautner’s lawyer has rejected the proposal.

“McMahon RV’s response to our client’s legitimate claim further demonstrates the lack of professionalism that Mr. McMahon, his company, and his employees have exhibited from the outset, and that compelled the filing of this lawsuit in the first place,” said attorney Robert Berta.

However, Barta said Lautner did “welcome the opportunity for him to resolve the matter by making a $40,000 donation to the charity of Mr. Lautner’s choice.”

Despite the lawsuit, Taylor recently insisted that despite his fame, he’s still humble.

“The thing I love is that my home life hasn’t changed,” he told GQ magazine in its July issue.

“I still help out with the garbage. I still help out with the lawn.

“There’s some things you just have to live with.

“Like 12 cars camping outside your house, and when you wake up in the morning, they’re going to follow you wherever you go. It helps that I live in Valencia. It eliminates some. But they’re still here.”
