Trick My Truck is a television program on Country Music Television (CMT). In a similar manner to shows like Pimp My Ride and Monster Garage, Trick My Truck works on all kinds of trucks, originally all semi-trailer trucks, but have moved on to other trucks along with these. The show features drivers and their rigs who were called in unknowingly as deserving parties by friends or family members; for example, one episode featured a driver who was partially paralyzed in an accident yet managed to keep driving to support his family.

Chrome Shop Mafia is the group of guys that modifies the trucks on the show. The company is 4 State Trucks. They are located in Joplin, Missouri. Their logo consists of a stylized Tommy Gun.
The drivers are unsuspecting, as the Chrome Shop Mafia simply shows up at the Truck stop and surprises them, and provides them with a loaner truck while theirs is being tricked out. The show starts out with most of the Chrome Shop Mafia crew engaged in various forms of goofing off, such running an ad-hoc obstacle course or racing RC cars. This is inevitably interrupted when the rest of the crew shows up to inform them about their latest target, giving a brief background of that person, after which the crew mounts up and heads out to meet him/her at a truck stop and get them to hand over the truck.
