Trick My Truck and the Chrome Shop Mafia

CMT's Trick My Truck has helped many truck drivers in countrified version on Over Haulin'. The Chrome Shop Mafia picks trucks from around the United States and Hijacks them as they driver thru the Mafias home town of Joplin, Missouri. The Chrome Shop Mafia is part of the 4 State Trucks, Inc that is located near the Petro and Pilot truck stops where the Mafia picks up the trucks. Although the "hijacking" is not as realistic as other shows of this genre, it still makes for a terrific show as the Chrome Shop Mafia gives the gift to others that they cannot give themselves.

The trucks that are seen on Trick My Truck are chosen by CMT usually have a hardship story of sorts behind it. A few things are unclear on the show such as whether they change engines and other drive parts on the truck or if it is all cosmetic changes? We often see a shiny motor but it is never mentioned on what has been done to it. The timeline also leaves us in the dark. The show never specifies how long it takes the Chrome Shop Mafia to Trick a Truck.

The team of the Chrome Shop Mafia is a diverse crew that includes a cast and crew of eight hard working guys that have created some of the most fabulous trucks since the show began in 2006. Bryan the Bossman and Kevin the Shop Foreman head up the crew. The lead designer Rod often is the one that chooses the themes and schemes for the trucks. Rick is on demo and is one scary dude, Rob does amazing things with the interior and the audio and video, and C.B. the fabricating and chrome work. Ryno is the painted who creates the amazing paint job on the trucks. His freehand artwork is just spectacular. Lastly is the upholsterer, OZ, although he is not considered part of the Chrome Shop Mafia, if it was not for his talents many of these trucks would not be pulled together the way they are.
