Plot Synopsis

Each one-hour episode of TRUCK NIGHT IN AMERICA features five drivers in their personal customized trucks and jeeps going head to head in three challenges, each testing a different vehicle attribute: speed, strength and handling. Between each challenge competitors demonstrate their craftsmanship by re-engineering their trucks for the next round. The last two finalists standing then take on a three-mile, truck killing obstacle course known as The Green Hell, which challenges trucks and drivers to fly off jumps, climb a mountain of crushed cars, and tear through a snake-infested swamp. With the assistance of four experts, owners compete for the chance to drive away with $10,000 and the title of Truck Night Champion. The four expert coaches are: 'Pistol' Pete Sohren, a desert racing champion and truck builder; Glen Plake, an extreme sports pioneer and dirt track racer; Abe Wine, a truck builder and master fabricator; and Rob 'Bender' Park, a rock crawling champion and master fabricator. These four experts offer tough love and their professional perspective on each contender's strategy and performance.

Season 2 of TRUCK NIGHT IN AMERICA premiered on Thursday, January 31, 2019 at 10pm ET/PT on History Channel. In the season opener, "Up the Creek," the diverse lineup includes a 1986 Suzuki Samurai and a 2008 Lexus competing for the title of Truck Night Champion. Two rigs nosedive while getting up close and personal on Bumps and Jumps, and new challenge, Creek Climb, Truck Night's toughest yet, gives one driver the scare of a lifetime and Bender the chance to shine.
